96th and Cyntheanne Roundabout Closed for Paving Through Monday
Fishers, IN · August 9, 2026
Sunday morning quiet is settling in, but if your weekend routine involves heading east toward Cyntheanne, keep a detour in mind before heading out.
The Lead
Bluegrass star Billy Strings wrapped up a three-night, sold-out stand at the Fishers Event Center last night, anchoring a landmark weekend for the city's sports and entertainment venue as its inaugural summer calendar reaches peak capacity.
The run drew thousands of music fans to the district each evening, packing surface lots along Stockdale Street and testing local hospitality infrastructure. Despite a brief hiccup during Thursday's opening show when an audience member tossed an object toward the stage, Strings delivered three full-length performances that kept crowds engaged late into the night. The successful weekend marks a key operational milestone for the year-old arena, demonstrating its ability to host consecutive multi-thousand-guest events as a robust autumn slate of concerts and athletic matchups approaches.
