Patrons under the age of 30 to be barred from entering Georgia Street Lounge in downtown Indianapolis

INDIANAPOLIS — A nightclub in downtown Indianapolis is planning to implement new age restrictions.

In a post on Facebook, Georgia Street Rhythm and Blues Lounge indicated that it will no longer accommodate guests under 30 years of age. Georgia Street Lounge posted a statement on its decision on its Facebook page.

In the post, the lounge’s management team indicated that it is planning to add new age restrictions because younger patrons “do not know how to conduct themselves in a grown and sexy environment.”

Georgia Street Lounge has indicated that it is willing to make exceptions to the rule for its staff and marketing team’s special guests.

“Georgia Street Lounge will now be age restricted to 30 and over,” the business’ management team wrote in its statement. “Unless you are a special guest of our staff or marketing team, you will not be allowed entry!!!”

In its statement, Georgia Street Lounge also suggested that it will no longer host any birthday parties for individuals under the age of 30.

“Do not contact us for any under-30 birthdays or special events, because the answer will be no,” Georgia Street Lounge management wrote in its statement. “Go somewhere else!!!”

FOX59/CBS4 checked public police reports to see how many times IMPD has been called to 28 W. Georgia St. — the address listed for Georgia Street Lounge — in the last six months. That search revealed that police published reports at the address three times between July 23 and Dec. 7.

Two of the times IMPD was called to Georgia Street Lounge over the last six months were for “disturbances.” On the other occasion officers went to the business over the last six months, IMPD took a report for a “simple assault.”

In total, IMPD filed seven reports from 28 W. Georgia St. between Jan. 1, 2025, and Dec. 21, 2025. Officers filed five reports from there in 2024 and six reports from there in 2023.

Those reports do not indicate whether or not police were called to the address to investigate complaints directly involving Georgia Street Lounge or if the address was just closest to where an incident that occurred outside the business happened.

FOX59/CBS4 has reached out to Georgia Street Lounge for more information on its decision to change its age requirements. As of this article’s publication, the business had not responded to requests for comment.
