June 2025 is shaping up to be one of the busiest—and most exciting—months Evansville has seen in years. From statewide sporting competitions to downtown festivals and arena-filling concerts, the city will be buzzing with activity. Here's a look at the headline events bringing people to town—and why a furnished EVV Housing rental is the smartest way to make the most of the rush.
Indiana State Games (June 5 – 14)
For ten straight days, Evansville hosts the Indiana State Games—the only qualifying site in the state for the National Senior Games. Hundreds of athletes aged 50 and up, plus their families and volunteers, will be competing at parks, gyms, and sports facilities across the city. With multi-day schedules and early morning starts, many participants prefer extended-stay lodging over traditional hotels. EVV Housing's fully equipped units offer the extra space and kitchen amenities athletes and supporters need for a comfortable, healthy stay.
River City Pride Parade & Festival (June 7)
Downtown turns rainbow-bright on the first Saturday of June as River City Pride takes over Main Street. A noon parade gives way to a day-long street festival packed with live music, food trucks, art vendors, and family-friendly activities. Last year's celebration was the region's largest Pride event, and 2025 is on track to top it.
Evansville Brick Convention (June 7 – 8)
LEGO lovers, rejoice: more than two million bricks are descending on the Old National Events Plaza for the city's first-ever Brick Convention. Expect professional LEGO artists, massive displays, vendors with rare sets, and a gigantic Brick Pit for free building.
