The City of Fishers has announced Freedom Mortgage as the presenting sponsor for the inaugural Spark!Fishers celebration on June 30. The community-led festival will offer a fresh twist on a favorite summer tradition and celebrate what it means to be uniquely Fishers.
On Friday, June 29, start the celebration early with a special AMP After Dark concert presented by The Mix 107.9 at Saxony Fields at Witten Park starring 90’s favorite national recording act, Sugar Ray and introducing Ryan Ahlwardt formerly of Straight No Chaser. This is a free but ticketed event. Learn how to secure tickets here.
