Situated in the heart of the Midwest, Fort Wayne is a nearly equal distance from Chicago, Detroit, and Cincinnati. Indiana’s second-largest city, Fort Wayne is a delightful mix of metropolitan amenities and small-town quirks. The cultural scene in Fort Wayne is thriving, with exceptional performances at the Embassy Theatre, extensive exhibits at the Fort Wayne Museum of Art, and the many offerings of the renowned Fort Wayne Children’s Zoo.
Fort Wayne brings the community together for a bevy of special events, including BuskerFest, Johnny Appleseed Festival, and the Three Rivers Festival. Fort Wayne residents also congregate for a variety of athletic events, but especially for Tin Caps home games at Parkview Field.
Ample green space, trails, and parkland provide plenty of opportunities for outdoor recreation in Fort Wayne in addition to the Maumee, Saint Marys, and Saint Joseph Rivers, which all converge in the city.
