We are often asked by event planners and visiting media why Indianapolis is continually selected to host so many national and international events.

Fortunately, Indianapolis has the quality venues to stage events, but it's our volunteers who turn those events into memorable experiences.

Bob Schultz

Being a playwright is lot of work. There are a lot more venues around here this year than years ago.

Brian Mcdermott

Michael Bracy

It's difficult for an artist to make a living in Los Angeles, especially when most venues make you pay or sell tickets to secure your performance slot.

Martin Brown

We wanted to make the tour as intimate as possible. This package is too big for a lot of theaters, but it's not quite right for a full-scale arena show. We looked at each band's history in a variety of markets, including secondary and tertiary ones, to determine what venues would work and what was available.

Trey Many

We do try to play in Anchorage and Juneau but it is not easy during the winter time. During the summer, though, we travel a lot. There are some pretty good venues all across the state and the whole scene just explodes with tourism.

Kliff Hopson

It was absolutely unbelievable. This was the best-organized games I've ever been a part of, and quite possibly one of the two or three best Games ever. The venues and the people were simply amazing.

Doug Reid

Schools, parks, movie theaters, most public venues carried the banner of separation and he was a child of that era. He walked through and lived on the periphery of the white world.

Christopher Ford

Patrick Mcclure

Sarah Miller

It's been proposed that we update our outdoor venues. We've put together a master plan to pretty much update them all.

Octavius James

People don't want to sit in an arena for 10 straight hours. So they take a break and go relax at the hotel and then come back. It's been that way at all venues forever. There were people that were forced to buy second tickets for the same session.

Joe Patrovich

We've been having a great time and it's been awesome performing at all these venues, some more historical than others. We visited a few college campuses already, but nothing to the magnitude of Notre Dame. I'd love to go down to the [football stadium] field, especially since 'Rudy' was one of my favorite movies.

Bret Ernst

We had just over 40,000 people attend last year's festival and we're expecting that to grow considerably this year because we've added new venues.

David Marrelli

Neal Brown

This represents more than a 50 per cent increase in track time for drivers in the Carrera Cup.

Marion Barnaby

Michael Cohl

This event is very appreciated. The boutiques really saw a need for it. The ladies love it. I don't have to tell you that our population is exploding here. We get the residents and the tourists. We've added more days this year and some of the venues have already sold out. The designers know this and some are sending their collection straight off the runway of New York.

Olympia Devine

In order for us to control our destiny, we have to have our own venues. It's about entertainment off the field and entertainment on the field. We're rewarding the people here in Colorado who have supported us by giving them a home.

Marcelo Balboa

I don't think there's been [an event] where all these venues have come together. We haven't done a lot of [work] directly targeting the consumer [but] we had the idea bout a month ago, and put it together pretty quickly. We already had [much of] the infrastructure in place to pull off a marketing campaign like this.

Michelle Byrd

Tim Marcum

Kids are going to be kids, and if there is a backlash against either rave promoters or venues, we're going to be much less safer for it. These promoters know the limitations with which they can put on events in town. Kids are going to do this, either in an abandoned factory or in a venue where you have access to paramedics and police officers and security.

David Osgood

There's not that many venues for reading poetry around the Bay area anymore.

Jim Graves

You have to have the right surface, the right field events venues and the right track width in order to win those bids.

Fazlur Rahman

Traditionally, CES has proven to be one of the most effective venues for MIPS Technologies' customers and licensees, and this year was no exception.

Jack Browne

We would like people to know that we have lots of Variety coin tins and posters that they can use in their places of work, business, church, and other community venues. We will gladly deliver the tins/posters to them and pick them up prior to ninth of February, so that they can be tallied prior to the Variety telethon on Feb. 11 and 12.

Jeff Mielke

They (Maryville High School) have playing and practice venues all across the city. For example, baseball will play at Maryville College soccer at John Sevier School, so we're really just all over. It becomes a real logistical nightmare for one person.

Joe Black

Our research indicates there is a balance between controlling crime, litter, prostitution and other things that can accompany these venues and infringing upon someone's freedom of expression.

Frank Reed

I'd like to see more culture in general happening ... Because there's not much out here in the way of cultural venues.

Maria Klein

It's had a big impact on the economy, especially as conventions have had to relocate. But by the end of the year, I think we are going to see recovery workers leaving and more venues opening up. I don't think tourists are going to give up on the city for long.

Cathy Keefe

We are here to discuss security and venue assessment, and will tour all the venues of the series.

Yashovardhan Azad

I don't like it, either. But there are 200 [non-smoking] venues in the city I can choose so that I don't have to be around it.

Carol Schwartz

Compton Terrace was one of the first 'sheds.' When Jess opened it, there weren't many venues like it. No one thought to dig a hole in the ground and hold concerts outdoors. Now there are 50 or 60 across the country.

Danny Zelisko

She's going to be wearing this in other venues all over the world.

Robert Freeman

Randy Wilber

This is a fantastic show, and we are delighted that other venues across Oregon have invited us to bring it to their local audiences. We had such an overwhelming response from audiences in Salem, we just knew we had something special.

Scott Palmer

River Oaks is one of the most prestigious and historically significant venues in American tennis and is going to be a great long term home for the Stanford Cup. We love the intimate feel of the venue and believe both the players and the fans will appreciate this special setting.

Jon Venison

I disassembled it, cut the stock down and put it back together so he could use it for the competition. Most venues are not necessarily that accommodating, but this is one of the many steps we take to make sure the athletes come first and are well hosted.

Tim Doak

Work on the venues has basically been completed.

Valentino Castellani

The great thing about the participants is that they had to genuinely qualify. We held two qualifying events at world class venues and company directors and senior corporate officers had to prove they had what it takes.

Bernard Gallacher

Would you rather see Yo-Yo Ma in Carnegie Hall or in the Houston Astrodome? ... I think people around the world think of Hayward Field as one of the more storied track and field venues in the world.

Greg Erwin

There's an awful lot of hidden talent in the area. I've been here a number of years, and I've actually seen the number of venues diminish. We need more opportunities for jazz musicians.

Robert Griffin

Better venues usually bring better revenues. People are usually willing to spend more when there is more for them to do.

Mark Gorris

This isn't about selling tickets and creating programming for our venues. For the most part, these are artists that can't even headline our venues right now. It's not worth it to take the risk.

Jim Cannella

Kauai is home to many wish-list golf venues such as Princeville and Kauai Lagoons, but locals, such as former LPGA pro Mary Bea Porter King, favor Waialua Municipal.

John Toole

As a driver, you want to race in great venues in front of big crowds. It brings dollars into the area.

Darren Libonati

Every single night, seven nights a week, thousands of people are out spending money at live music venues. You get eight Bears games a year drawing 60,000 people, but many, many more come to our venues over the course of a year. Every night of the week in Chicago is a music festival on par with anything in New York, L.A. or Nashville.

Tim Tuten

Calgary is leading the country in retail sales increases, staking its claim as the capital city of Canada's retail sector. Retailers are looking for venues to expand.

Nancy Stewart

When the Eagles were putting together their concert tour, they made it clear they wanted to plan venues they've never played before. They chose three they've never played before, and that was Salinas, Sonoma and Calaveras.

Sally Hamana

Consumers are clearly making the most of all the choices they have to discover and purchase music, and physical product is still a very large part of the equation.

Russ Crupnick

We have nine venues that are active for us and the way it seems to work is that the Open comes to St Andrews about every five years and to each of the others about every 10.

Gregg Gothreaux

When we first bought the company, there was the stigma attached to the UFC, ... At that time we were out trying to talk to venues. Venues weren't even interested in having the UFC there. MGM, Mandalay Bay, a few out in Atlantic City. We had to go in and get people interested in hosting UFC events.

Dana White

When designing Guestroom 2010, HFTP will conduct an exhaustive global search for the industry's cutting-edge and future technology. Our intent is for Guestroom 2010 to be an important reference for the industry and the possibility exists that we will take the display to other venues.

Jim Boone

Of course, not everything is finished yet and the IOC will continue to worry until after the closing ceremony, just as we do at every Olympic Games. The remaining test events will give the games organizers vital opportunities to further improve on plans that have been drawn up for the venues now being completed.

Jean Claude Killy

We had over 800 people here on Tuesday. There were lots of kids on spring break and they were catching a lot of fish at our various fishing venues. All the fish are biting right now.

Allen Forshage

Gary Lemaster

The Merchant City has some great venues for comedy. We want to show a bit of everything that happens in Glasgow's comedy community.

Mary Nelson

The Legacy Run will stop along the way for venues arranged by Legion Posts or American Legion Riders chapters along the route.

Michael Garten

Audiovisual needs affect the height of the ceilings in the room and eliminate some venues.

Kathryn Horton

Jim Kerr

The hotel benefits from its position in the mixed-use environment as it can serve the neighboring businesses in addition to the corporate traveler seeking a location that is both close to the airport and to downtown. Leisure travelers are drawn to the nearby gulf coast beaches, golf courses, recreation facilities and sporting venues.

Bernie Siegel

This year is very crucial as the main structures for the venues are scheduled to be completed.

Jin Yan

We play Midwest shows on our way to west or east. There's not as many big markets in the Midwest. It seems like (the coasts have) more venues for us to play.

Ed Neuschler

There's no real reason to restrict our development to traditional street venues. Traditional street venues are getting so much more competitive it almost behooves you to look at possible alternatives.

Fred Williams
