More Than a Venue - A Civic Legacy Since 1938
Proudly serving Hammond and Northwest Indiana for over 85 years.
Our Story
Since opening in 1938, the Hammond Civic Center has stood as a gathering place for the people of Hammond and Northwest Indiana. What started as a local venue has grown into a multi-purpose arena where community, culture, and celebration come together.
At our core, we believe in access, affordability, and belonging. Whether you’re attending a concert, breaking a sweat in the fitness center, or bringing your own event to life in our 4,200-seat arena, we’re here to support the moments that matter.
As a city-owned facility, we’re proud to carry forward a tradition built on public service, hometown pride, and a commitment to creating space for connection.
With decades of experience, a proven track record, and thousands of successful events behind us, the Hammond Civic Center continues to stand as a trusted destination for families, fans, and professionals alike.
