When the Palladium first opened, we worried that it would cannibalize the ISO, which is so important to Indy. Definitely not the case! The Palladium is an absolutely wonderful property and a fantastic addition to our arts offerings in the greater Indianapolis community. Then location itself is prime, the facility is GORGEOUS, the bookings are top-rate and varied, and my husband and I enjoy the creative options for types of season ticket purchases made available. We enjoy it so much!

The gym is large and clean. It has showers. There are few auto-belays. IN the middle of the gym is a big snake with the foam pit. The climb on the snake is exhilarating experience. The staff is very friendly.
