Build your Detroit to Indianapolis trip around the venue and arrival time on your schedule. A downtown convention, an event at Lucas Oil Stadium and a visit to Indianapolis Motor Speedway need different arrival plans. Start with your exact Detroit pickup address, destination and travel date, then add any stops before the main event.
Downtown Conventions and Stadium Events
Indiana Convention Center is at 100 South Capitol Avenue; Lucas Oil Stadium is at 500 South Capitol Avenue. The official venue website lists both addresses and visitor resources. Include the venue and entrance shown in your event instructions rather than a general downtown destination.
If you are attending a convention over several days, specify whether the first arrival is at your hotel or the event. Provide the hotel address, luggage needs and any fixed meeting times. If colleagues are joining at another location, add their pickup to the proposed itinerary so it can be considered with the rest of the trip.
Plan Speedway Arrivals Around Your Event
Indianapolis Motor Speedway is a separate destination from the downtown convention venues. Check the Speedway’s official website for the directions, entrance gates and traffic instructions for your own event and travel date; an entrance used on one day may differ from another event’s arrangements.
Send the event name, date, ticket or hospitality entrance instructions and the time you want to arrive. Describe any proposed pickup afterward as a separate part of the request. Event traffic and access arrangements can affect where vehicles are able to meet passengers, so a precise venue plan is more useful than a general street address alone.
Local Time and Flight Connections
Indianapolis uses Eastern Time and observes daylight saving, like Detroit. Keep the travel date with each pickup and arrival time, particularly when a late event is followed by an early flight. Visit Indiana’s time-zone guide lists Indianapolis in Eastern Time; other parts of Indiana use Central Time.
If Indianapolis International Airport is your destination, include the airport name, airline, flight number and departure date. Tell us your required airport arrival time and whether you intend to stop at a hotel or meeting first. Airport and downtown arrivals should be identified separately in the itinerary.
Choose a Vehicle and Check Your Trip
Share passenger and bag counts, planned stops and any proposed return date. The Lincoln Aviator (Executive Sedan) accommodates up to 3 passengers and 3 bags; Executive and Premium SUVs accommodate up to 6 passengers and 6 bags. Compare the Fleet and tell us about oversized luggage.
Check the booking form for current pricing and availability. If no rate calculates, request a quote or call with the full itinerary. Include a return pickup address and time if needed so its requirements can be reviewed separately.
