The Verizon Wireless Music Center (formerly known as Deer Creek Music Center) is an outdoor amphitheater owned by Live Nation located in Noblesville, Indiana. The venue is a large open-air concert venue capable of hosting live, high-profile concerts. This facility is capable of hosting large, outdoor music festivals, such as Ozzfest and Van’s Warped Tour. The center is the largest outdoor music venue in central Indiana with 6,000 seats under a pavilion and about 18,000 general admission lawn seats.

When it was known as Deer Creek Music Center, the Grateful Dead performed there on July 2, 1995, in one of their final concerts before their last venue at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois, on July 7, 1995. During the Dead’s visit, a number of fans stormed a rear fence, attempting to enter without paid admission. As a result, the Dead’s last concert at the facility on the following night was canceled.

Verizon Wireless Music Center was ranked 5th in the nation for tickets sold in 2006.
