For those who love everything guitar-related, the Indiana Guitar Show & Music Gear Expo will return to the Hendricks County 4-H Fairgrounds Sept. 28 and 29.
It’s the largest musical event to occur in Indiana each year and visitors can expect demonstrations, national dealers, expert advice, raffles and more.
Show Details
This year’s fall event is 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sept. 28 and 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sept. 29. Tickets are $15 per day, but if visitors choose to purchase a T-shirt for $25 they receive free admission for both days.

More Than Guitars
With 140 tables full of everything from music memorabilia to vintage and new instruments, visitors can pick up nearly anything.
For the novice to the collector, guests will find PA systems, fiddles, dulcimers, recording equipment, vinyl records, mandolins, amps and much more, available for purchase or trade at varying price points.
Swag
The theme this year is Celebrating the 55th anniversary of Woodstock. Purchase a T-shirt, hats and other swag.
And be sure to sign up for the door prize for a chance to win autographed photos of Bonnie Raitt, Paul McCartney and Johnny Cash or an autographed album by your favorite artist, among others.
Special Guests
Bring your instrument to be interviewed for the next A&E television network’s Every Guitar Has A Story special. A five-camera shoot in the Expo Hall includes an interview with musicians, while viewers learn more about your favorite instrument or amp.
