Default Swap Meet-Bike Show at Indy

Didn't see anything posted about the Midwest Motorcycle Swap Meet at the Marion Co. Fairgrounds. It takes place Sat. April 14th & Sun. the 15th. The address is 7300 E. Troy Ave.
Indianapolis Indiana. It usually is a pretty good swap meet. A good reason to get the bike out for a ride.

Sean & I went last year. It was pretty good. That’s where Sean picked up his apes and we got a helmet for our daughter. The weather that weekend is going to SUCK!

Is that the same fairgrounds that the motorcycle and boat show was a couple months ago?

No. That was the State Fairgrounds. This is the Marion Co. fairgrounds and is on the Southeast side of Indy. I live East of Indy so when I come in I use 70 to 465 South. Take exit 94 onto Southeastern Ave. Go South to Troy Ave. Turn East on Troy Ave and it goes right by the fairgrounds. Hope that helps you locate it.

I was thinking Indy had two fairgrounds. Thanks for the directions, never been to the county fairground so I would have gone to the wrong one.

most are familar with the big Indiana State fairgrounds off 38th

but like most all other counties, Marion County has it's own smaller '4-H' fairgrounds

the loop for life also usually starts out of the county grounds (or did when i went)
