The Indiana Farmers Coliseum is home to both the [[Indy Fuel]] of the [[ECHL]] and the [[IUPUI Jaguars]] of the [[National Collegiate Athletic Association|NCAA]].

Originally opened in 1939 as part of President [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]]'s [[Works Progress Administration]] (part of the [[New Deal]]), the Coliseum has hosted numerous historical events, including the only performances ever held in Indiana by [[The Beatles]], in 1964.<ref>{{cite web|title=Indiana Farmers Coliseum|url=http://www.indianastatefair.com/coliseum/|access-date=May 4, 2017}}</ref>

After [[Market Square Arena]] opened in 1974, the coliseum continued on as an alternate venue to the larger arena for events requiring less seating or overall space. This continues today after the [[Gainbridge Fieldhouse]] opened in 1999, and the subsequent demolition of Market Square Arena in 2001.

On October 26, 2012, the Coliseum held a "Lights Out" ceremony and closed for renovations.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.wishtv.com/dpp/news/local/marion_county/lights-are-out-at-the-pepsi-coliseum|title=Lights Out Ceremony|access-date=2012-10-27|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121028164130/http://www.wishtv.com/dpp/news/local/marion_county/lights-are-out-at-the-pepsi-coliseum|archive-date=2012-10-28|url-status=dead}}</ref> On April 24, 2014, after a 17-month, $53 million renovation, the Coliseum re-opened.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Rader|first1=Kevin|title=Open house shows off newly renovated State Fairgrounds Coliseum|url=http://www.wthr.com/story/25329239/2014/04/24/open-house-shows-off-newly-renovated-state-fairgrounds-coliseum|access-date=June 13, 2014|work=[[WTHR]]|date=April 25, 2014|ref=WTHR_reopening|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140714183325/http://www.wthr.com/story/25329239/2014/04/24/open-house-shows-off-newly-renovated-state-fairgrounds-coliseum|archive-date=July 14, 2014|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In December 2014, the Indiana Farmers Mutual Insurance Company entered into a ten-year agreement with the Indiana State Fair Commission to re-christen the arena as the Indiana Farmers Coliseum.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.wthr.com/story/27526352/2014/12/02/state-fair-coliseum-takes-indiana-farmers-coliseum-name |title=State Fair Coliseum takes Indiana Farmers Coliseum name - 13 WTHR Indianapolis |access-date=2014-12-02 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141213081007/http://www.wthr.com/story/27526352/2014/12/02/state-fair-coliseum-takes-indiana-farmers-coliseum-name |archive-date=2014-12-13 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

==History==

===1963 gas explosion===
{{Main|1963 Indiana State Fairgrounds Coliseum gas explosion}}
[[File:Fairgrounds Coliseum plaq.jpg|thumb|right|Plaque honoring explosion victims 2014]]
On October 31, 1963, during a [[Holiday on Ice]] show, a [[liquefied petroleum gas]] leak at a concession stand caused an explosion which killed 81 people<ref>{{Cite book|last=Drabek|first=Thomas E.|url=http://archive.org/details/disasterinaisle10000drab|title=Disaster in Aisle 13: A Case Study of the Coliseum Explosion at the Indiana State Fairgrounds, October 31, 1963|publisher=[[Ohio State University|College of Administrative Science, The Ohio State University]]|year=1968|series=[[University of Delaware#Disaster Research Center|Disaster Research Center]] Series|location=Columbus, Ohio|language=en}}</ref> and injured around 400 others.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.library.ca.gov/CRB/96/05/over_4.html|title=Disaster in Aisle 13 Revisited|last=Drabek|first=Thomas|date=May 18, 1995|access-date=October 7, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081027023233/http://www.library.ca.gov/CRB/96/05/over_4.html|archive-date=October 27, 2008|url-status=dead}}</ref> A memorial plaque was dedicated 40 years later in the building, but it has since been removed. Another plaque honoring the explosion victims currently hangs inside the building's lobby.

==Indiana Pacers (1967–74)==
The venue was home to the [[Indiana Pacers]] of the [[American Basketball Association]] (ABA) from 1967 to 1974. The Pacers were very successful in their tenure at the Coliseum, winning three ABA Championships. They captured the ABA titles in 1969–70, defeating the [[Los Angeles Stars]] in 6 games, in 1971–72, defeating the [[New York Nets]] in 6 games, and in the 1972–73 season, defeating the [[Kentucky Colonels]] in 7 games. The team moved to [[Market Square Arena]] in 1974. In 1976, the Pacers became a franchise in the [[National Basketball Association]] (NBA) when the ABA merged with the NBA.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.remembertheaba.com/Indiana-Pacers.html|title=Remember the ABA: Indiana Pacers|website=www.remembertheaba.com|access-date=August 30, 2019}}</ref>

The Pacers returned for a night when they played their first pre-season game of the 2008–09 season at the Pepsi Coliseum on October 8, 2008, hosting the then-[[New Orleans Hornets]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080820/SPORTS04/80820089/1088|title=Pacers to play New Orleans in Pepsi Coliseum|date=August 20, 2008|work=[[Indianapolis Star]]|access-date=2008-10-07|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150610223806/http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=%2F20080820%2FSPORTS04%2F80820089%2F1088|archive-date=June 10, 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref> 7,439 people watched the Pacers lose to the Hornets 105–71. The Pacers wore uniforms based on the 1967 to 1971 uniform design.

==Ice hockey==

The [[Indianapolis Capitals]] of the [[American Hockey League]] played at the Coliseum from 1939 to 1952, winning the [[Calder Cup]] in 1942 and 1950. The [[Indianapolis Chiefs]] of the [[International Hockey League (1945–2001)|International Hockey League]] played at the Coliseum from 1955 to 1962, winning the [[Turner Cup]] in 1958.

The [[Indiana Ice]] of the [[United States Hockey League]] played at the Coliseum from 2004 to 2012, leaving due to the renovation. The Ice won the USHL's Clark Cup in 2009 while playing in the building. They did not return to the Coliseum upon the venue reopening, opting for withdrawal from competition or dormancy until another venue could be secured.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.indianaice.com/news/2014/07/21/indiana-ice/indiana-ice-granted-dormacy/ |title=Indiana Ice Granted Dormacy | Indiana Ice |access-date=2014-10-16 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141020115919/http://www.indianaice.com/news/2014/07/21/indiana-ice/indiana-ice-granted-dormacy/ |archive-date=2014-10-20 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Since 2014 the [[Indy Fuel]] hockey team has played in the arena. The Fuel are an [[ECHL]] team affiliated with the [[Chicago Blackhawks]]. The 2023-2024 season will be the last for the Fuel at the Coliseum before they leave for the new [[Fishers Event Center]] currently under construction in suburban [[Fishers, Indiana|Fishers.]]<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-03-25 |title=Indy Fuel and city leaders break ground on Fishers Event Center |url=https://fox59.com/indiana-news/indy-fuel-and-city-leaders-break-ground-on-fishers-event-center/ |access-date=2023-05-14 |website=Fox 59 |language=en-US}}</ref>

The Coliseum hosted the American Hockey League's Calder Cup Final in 1942, 1943 and 1950; the International Hockey League's Turner Cup Final in 1957, 1958 and 1990; the Central Hockey League's Adams Cup Final in 1982, 1983 and 1984; and the United States Hockey League's Clark Cup Final in 2009. Eight of Indianapolis' nine hockey championship teams called the Coliseum home. The other was the 2014 Indiana Ice, who split their schedule between Bankers Life Fieldhouse and Pan Am Pavilion.
