Top 10 Spots in Indianapolis for Hosting an Epic Hoop Trailer Party
If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind event experience in Indianapolis, Hoop Indianapolis is the ultimate party rental that turns any location into a full-blown arcade. But where should you set up your Hoop trailer for maximum fun? We’ve rounded up 10 of the best places in and around Indy to throw a birthday party, corporate event, or community bash with Hoop as the main attraction.
Whether you're planning for kids, teens, or adults, these local spots are perfect for bringing the energy, the competition, and the fun.
1. Your Own Driveway or Cul-de-Sac
Let’s start with the easiest option—right at home. Our trailer fits comfortably in most driveways or cul-de-sacs, turning your neighborhood into an instant party zone. Zero travel. Zero stress. Maximum hype.
2. Eagle Creek Park
This massive park on the northwest side of Indy offers plenty of picnic areas and open parking lots—ideal for setting up a Hoop trailer alongside your outdoor party. Great for birthday parties, team events, or family reunions.
3. Broad Ripple Park
Located near the artsy, fun Broad Ripple district, this park is a favorite for families and friends looking for a unique celebration spot. The basketball energy fits perfectly with the neighborhood's youthful vibe.
4. Garfield Park
Indianapolis' oldest park is full of charm and space. With rental shelters and open green areas, it’s a great choice for summer parties, youth group events, and fundraisers—especially when you want to pair nature with non-stop hoops.
5. Community Centers (Like The MLK Center or The Athenaeum)
Many of Indy’s community centers have parking lots or indoor/outdoor event space that can host the trailer. Great for hosting neighborhood outreach events, teen nights, or church groups.
6. Church Parking Lots
From Carmel to Fountain Square, church parking lots are some of our favorite places to set up. Youth nights, trunk-or-treats, and summer kickoffs get a massive upgrade with Hoop Indianapolis on-site.
7. Breweries with Outdoor Spaces
For adult-focused events, Hoop is a hit at breweries like Sun King, Metazoa, or Bier Brewery. Host a company mixer, birthday, or fundraiser where guests can sip and shoot hoops. Everyone wins.
8. Downtown Office Buildings
Want to boost morale at your workplace or host an unforgettable client event? Many downtown Indianapolis offices and buildings have loading zones or parking spaces that work perfectly for the trailer. We’ve seen this become the surprise hit of company offsites.
9. Event Venues with Parking Access
From wedding venues to rentable halls, any place with a parking lot or nearby open space can become the site of a basketball bash. Think outside the walls—Hoop is made to complement any event.
10. Indoor Options for Cold Weather: Warehouses, Airport Hangars, Gyms
Indianapolis winters can be chilly, but that doesn’t stop the party. We can set up in larger indoor spaces—think warehouses, event barns, even airport hangars. For the colder months, we can also bring heaters and keep the doors closed to keep the fun going.

All we need is a relatively flat surface—like a driveway, parking lot, or open grass—and we’re good to go. We don’t need power or Wi-Fi, and setup is fast and clean.
