Sign Up For EmailOn April 8, 2024, at 3:06 p.m, a total solar eclipse will be completely visible throughout the continental United States. The sun, moon, and earth will align. This "syzygy" will put the sky into epic and unforgettable temporary darkness. Though the following solar eclipse will occur in the year 2044, Indianapolis will not be within the path of totality until the year 2153 - 129 years after 2024. So buckle up and plan your eclipse-viewing in Indy. The April 8 eclipse is your once-in-a-lifetime chance to see a total solar eclipse appear over the Circle City.
Indy is in the path of totality and is a perfect spot to view and celebrate the eclipse. The city is planning a weekend-long party with gatherings, films, games, special performances, lectures and more across the city to celebrate space, astronomy, astrology, and anything related to the eclipse. This will be epic.
The eclipse will be fully visible across the United States, but nowhere will there be such a connected and accessible destination as the "Crossroads of America." Indianapolis, located in the center of the "Path of Totality," will see a total solar eclipse for 3 minutes and 46 seconds on April 8, 2024 at 3:06 pm.
An ideal spot for viewing the eclipse, the green space at White River State Park will have a weekend full of activities. And with 40 food trucks will gather along the Old Washington Street Bridge, you'll have ample opportunities to fuel up and get ready for the main event.
The IMS will have an exciting day of programming and celebration planned as they collaborate with NASA as one of just three broadcast locations across the country and open their facility to the world. NASA experts will be on-hand to answer questions about the scientific phenomenon that is a total solar eclipse.
Experience the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024 with the animals at the Indianapolis Zoo. Spend the day enjoying spring in full bloom at White River Gardens and learning how animals respond to changes between day and night. It’s totality something to roar about!
Total Eclipse of the Art: Newfields won’t be shadowed by any other venue in the path of totality for the #SolarEclipse2024. Celebrate this once-in-a-lifetime experience with a rockin’ music festival, food, and festivities in a historic and memorable location. At 3:06 pm, bask in the moon’s shadow for three and a half minutes, while toasting with champagne.
Seeing the city and the solar eclipse on your own terms? These RV hookup spots are ready to welcome you.
