Egyptian Room at Old National Centre

The Egyptian Room at the Old National Centre is a historic venue that knows how to host a show—and then some! We've attended everything from belly-laughing comedy nights to high-energy concerts, and every event has had its own magic. Whether it’s a standing-room-only crowd or a full-seated arrangement, the space adapts beautifully. Pro tip: the best seats in the house are tucked along the sides, especially on the left. You get a great view, a bit more elbow room, and a surprisingly cozy vibe even with a packed crowd. Acoustics? Stellar. Atmosphere? Electric. Staff? Always upbeat, helpful, and genuinely friendly—it makes the whole experience smoother and more fun. Parking’s also a breeze—just grab a pass in advance, and you’ll skip the stress and roll right in. If you’re looking for a venue with history, charm, and consistently great service, the Egyptian Room is pure gold. Can’t wait for the next show!

The best experience here every time I come here for concerts it's a really nice venue. They are very strict on some things but stuff is very nice, Overall we got upgraded and got to see the band up close too. Make sure to get there early the lines are long. Waters do come in cans which is very had to carry around when you have stuff that's only bummer. Overall good place to go for concerts.

My sister, niece, and I went to the Old National Theatre in Indianapolis, IN. It was an amazing experience seeing my niece's favorite kpop group, Artms. The people were friendly, the Egyptian Room where the concert was held was cozy, and the atmosphere amazing! We were like 5 rows from the stage and could see Artms perfectly! The speakers definitely had bass and we felt and loved every beat that played! The staff was nice, the people around us at the concert were nice, and Artms were phenomenal performers! The room had about 500 of us there, but it felt like there were 5,000 people as loud as we were screaming for the girls. Entering and exiting the parking lot was easy and not too far of a walk to get into the theatre. This was an amazing experience for me and my family, and I highly recommend this theatre!

Amazing place to see a band you love !!! I saw the Breeders here in the 1990s. This night was MJ Lenderman...very high energy show !!! I will definitely be back to see another band here. VERY FRIENDLY STAFF. The sound is great, and the upstairs room is a perfect size for a show. This venue is excellent, and Indianapolis ROCKS !!!

Went here for bingo loco and had a great time. Nice setting, good acoustics. Drinks were $24 each which I thought was a little ridiculous, but our waitress made sure we didn't go empty at least.

My wife and I are both disabled veterans. We recently went to the Whitney Cummings show in the Egyptian Room. It was scheduled to start at 7 pm. Prior to that I upgraded to the VIP section because the chairs were so close together you could barely breath. The show started 20 minutes late with an opening act. Whitney performed for a bit. Our waitress came by and took my order for another beer. No mention even then if last call. These are the 24 oz cans of beer. A lot and expensive. About 10 minutes after delivering my beer the show ended. It wasn't even 9 pm. This is when all hell broke loose. We were midway back on the second level VIP section. Staff insisted that we leave. Leave now. Leave immediately so that they could do a meet and greet with fans of Whitney. All the way up on the stage. At least a hundred feet away. They're was no reason to suspect we would interfere in this meet and greet, but we had to leave. The manager came. The cop working security came. Everyone said we have to leave. At that point I requested a wheel chair. One was brought over and I sat down. The staff continued to harass us all the way out. The man pushing the wheel chair was the only decent person there. He asked where to take me? I said the main entrance. When we got off the elevator the rude staff forced us to the side door where there are steps. We were not resisting in any way. The staff decided they could actually push my wife because she would stop and say something. Of course arguing but no reason for anyone to lay their hands on her. She was practically pushed down the steps by a woman on the staff. I was recording all of this. I also took pictures which you'll see attached. The manager was the one with her hands on her pocket. The cop is obvious. The pushy woman is the one peacocking and getting a congratutory hug. The goofy looking man keep talking trash to us. Enjoy your next show here. We certainly won't be back. They are lucky we didn't press assault charges.

Second time coming to the Egyptian Room. I love how personal this place is! You can squeeze your way up to the front easily. The drinks could be a little lower in price, but isn’t too bad compared to other venues. The bathrooms were clean every time I went in there. The lines were never long to get drinks or the bathroom. I like how the mirrors above the sinks are covered so females aren’t fixing their makeup and taking up room. The staff was friendly too. Definitely my favorite venue. Lower the prices on drinks, and I’ll be even happier and will definitely buy more.
