Four Dates Across Nine Days
Lucas Oil Stadium holds four dated events from 7 to 15 November. ISSMA takes the building on 7 November, the Colts play the Dallas Cowboys on 8 November, Bands of America Grand Nationals run 12 to 14 November, and the Colts play the Miami Dolphins on 15 November. The venue's November event feed carries all four.
Each date publishes its own clock. The ISSMA finals open the ticket office at 7:45 a.m., the North and West gates at 9:00 a.m., and the first performance at 9:30 a.m., with the listing running to 11:59 p.m. Grand Nationals open the South Parking Lot at 6:00 a.m., the ticket office at 6:45 a.m., the East Gate at 7:00 a.m., and competition at 7:00 a.m. Both Colts dates open the ticket office at 9:00 a.m., Touchdown Town at 10:00 a.m., the gates at 11:00 a.m., and kick off at 1:00 p.m.
The ISSMA Saturday runs 14 hours and 14 minutes inside the venue's published window, from the 7:45 a.m. ticket office to the 11:59 p.m. listing.
What a Day Room Costs in This Market
Dayuse lists an average day-room price of $87.43 for Indianapolis and recommends the Quality Inn & Suites Southport. That read was taken on 25 September 2026.
Engine's Indianapolis page carries a par nightly rate of $128 across 1.2 million public rate observations from May 2024 to April 2026. The market ranks 39 of 50 and sits 14 per cent below the $148 median. The monthly series reads $122 for November, $107 for February and $158 for May. Engine defines a par rate as the cheapest publicly available price at the time of each search, measured 10 to 180 days before check-in.
The Lodging List Publishes No Rate
The stadium's Hotels and Lodging link resolves to Visit Indy's reservation platform. Its own property array, read on 25 September 2026, returns 64 hotels, every one in Indianapolis, from 0.03 miles to 9.97 miles. Twenty-one sit within 0.62 miles and 31 sit within a mile.
Every record carries a null rate. The page prints "PLEASE ENTER DATES TO SEE RATES" in place of a price and attaches an actual-driving-distance note to each distance string.
The Weekday Window Grand Nationals Opens
Grand Nationals run Wednesday 12 November to Friday 14 November, and each of those three days starts competition at 7:00 a.m.
The two Colts Sundays hold the gates to an 11:00 a.m. opening and a 1:00 p.m. kickoff. The stadium runs a cashless facility, and all ticketing is mobile.
