Hamilton County’s 2025 Wrapped

1. HamCo Hubway

Our trail network, of four trails connecting four cities, became your favorite outdoor playlist with over 19,000 trail maps distributed—proof that adventure is always trending in Hamilton County. Every path told a story, and you wrote thousands of them this year.

2. Tenderloin Tuesday

Sweet 16 never tasted so good! This culinary chart-topper saw 52 restaurants serving up Indiana's iconic sandwich, with redemptions jumping 27% and 3,000 new foodie fans discovering why Tuesday is the tastiest day of the week.

3. Monon Trail

Indiana's most-streamed trail hit different this year. Record-breaking numbers of cyclists, runners, and walkers made the Monon their daily anthem, proving that sometimes the best playlist is the rhythm of your own footsteps.

4. Festivals

Our signature events—Indiana Peony Festival, Jupiter Flights Balloon Festival and Carmel Christkindlmarkt—weren't just attended, they were experienced. Sold-out crowds created the kind of energy that gives you goosebumps every time.

5. Grand Park

Grand Park stayed a fan-favorite again in 2025, drawing teams and families from across the country for tournaments, championships and weekend-long sports getaways.

Hamilton County went platinum on the world stage, hosting three major international events that put us on everyone's radar:

1. World Fitness Project | May 9-11: Grand Park Event Center hosted WFP's inaugural event, setting the bar for fitness excellence
2. LIV Golf | August 15-17: The Club at Chatham Hills shattered attendance records with 60,000 fans witnessing Jon Rahm's Individual Championship victory, plus unforgettable performances by Jason Derulo and Riley Green
3. World Aquatics Swimming World Cup | October 10-12: Carmel High School's Aquatics Center made waves with 14 US Open records, 3 World Cup records and 1 World Record—cementing our reputation as where champions make history

Plus, the Professional Volleyball Federation All-Star Match, February 22,  brought star power to Fishers Event Center with hosts Shawn Johnson and Jalen Rose.

This is why Hamilton County is where champions play!

Hamilton County earned rave reviews from national tastemakers:

• Midwest Living crowned Carmel as "The Art Destination You've Been Missing"
• CBS Saturday Morning featured Noblesville's 9th Street Bistro in "Chefs Take Big Flavor to Small Towns"

These features weren't just mentions—they were standing ovations for everything that makes Hamilton County extraordinary.

Our content hit different this year:

Hamilton County is home to many landmarks and this year, we added two more! We greeted Arena at Innovation Mile on August 8, 2025, in Noblesville. This arena will host the inaugural season of the Noblesville Boom, an NBA G League team and an affiliate of the NBA's Indiana Pacers.

Fishers Event Center, home to the Indy Ignite, Indy Fuel and Fishers Freight, celebrated a successful inaugural year on November 22.

Noblesville also landed the USA Gymnastics Training & Wellness Center and Office Headquarters, which will be located next to the Arena at Innovation Mile.
