Did you search “Eras Tour dates” this year? So did the rest of the US — but this is what Hoosiers were googling on a more local level.

Google’s 2024 Year in Search is out, and its local search function provides an interesting peek into our city’s queries. Take a look at what we were searching most this year (plus, our answers to your searches).

Unique local searches

  • Top trending song | “Too Sweet” by Hozier
  • Top trending sports event | Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul
  • Top Olympian | Simone Biles
  • 4DX movie theater near me | While there are sadly no 4DX movie theaters in Indy, Alamo Drafthouse just opened, serving up a world class film and dining experience. Or you could make a trip of it and hop on Amtrak to Washington D.C for a true 4DX experience.
  • Where to vote near me | Y’all did your civic duty this year, with almost 3 million Hoosiers hitting the polls to vote. We’ve got a while before our next election, but we’re always keeping you up to date on civic news in Indy, such as the 2025 city budget.
  • Eclipse glasses near me | The eclipse really was a sight to behold. If you’ve still got your glasses hanging around, here’s how you can donate or recycle them.

The fact that “INDYtoday” wasn’t a top local search only hurts our feelings a little bit. There’s always next year.
