25 Years of Music Feeding People
For 25 years, the Indianapolis music community has come together on the Friday before Thanksgiving to celebrate the music we love and give back to the city we call home.
On November 20, Tonic Ball celebrates its 25th anniversary with its biggest tribute yet: one night, five Fountain Square stages, and the return of all 60 artists Tonic has celebrated throughout its history.
Hundreds of local musicians. Thousands of music fans. One unforgettable night in support of Second Helpings.
This is Tonic Ball 25.
