Indianapolis Cars and Coffee COVID-19 Response (January 1, 2021)
As the 2021 Cars and Coffee season approaches, expectations are that the global COVID-19 pandemic will persist well into 2021. With that said we do not know when our first event will take place in 2021, but we are actively monitoring the situation. While our events are generally hosted outdoors we want to do everything we can to ensure the health and safety of our community and team. Our commitment is to move forward with a 2021 Season once we’re confident we can do it safely. We are looking at all data — including local cases, near and long‑term trends, and guidance from national and local health officials — to make that decision. The response to COVID‑19 is still ongoing, and we recognize that the road back will have its twists and turns. We will always put the health and safety of our community and team above all else.
