The Circle City Classic® Celebration is about so much more than football. As part of IBE’s mission to serve and empower Indiana communities, each year, Circle City Classic® includes education, career, and cultural-focused events that complement the HBCU football matchup.
Showcasing area high school females and promoting academic achievement, community service, and leadership development.
A platform for student-athletes, recent college graduates, and aspiring professionals to network with multiple workforce industry sectors.
Come and celebrate unity and black culture with us. Bring your best moves, gather your team, and give it your all!
Pageantry, celebrities, floats, and marching bands make this one of top parades in the country.
Join us in celebrating 41 years of incredible impact in Indiana and beyond with two outstanding HBCUs and their leaders on Friday, September 26th from 8:00 to 11:00pm.
This College Fair provides middle and high school students with opportunities for college admissions, scholarships, face-to-face interaction with university representatives, and information about various campus programs and student life.
Since 1984, Indiana Black Expo has hosted Circle City Classic®, a unique showcase of HBCUs, academic excellence, culture, music, and tradition.
