Non-ticketed Events & Conferences
IU Auditorium serves as the community’s gathering place, hosting university ceremonies, orientation programs, trade shows, weddings, and student productions through making itself available to outside users.
The beautiful and historic spaces, professional backstage and front-of-house services, hands-on event management, flexible lobby spaces, and a host of satisfied customers make it an ideal location for a variety of events, both private and public.
Many of our conference and non-ticketed events happen on an annual basis, including:
- International Thespians Festival
- Best Buddies Leadership Conference
- College of Arts and Sciences Direct Admit Reception
- IU Freshman Induction
- New Student Orientation
- Commencement Recognition Ceremonies
- Proms
- IU Arts and Humanities Council's First Thursdays
- Future Problem Solvers
- Holiday Parties, Receptions, and Dinners
“The Auditorium staff is so well qualified and knowledgeable; you definitely get your money’s worth. Part of the reason why we rent the Auditorium instead of another location on campus is because of all of the advice and suggestions we receive along the way — for student groups that see a high level of turnover year after year, that is invaluable!”
Tony Truong, IU Asian American Association
