About Butler University
Located in the heart of Indianapolis, Indiana, Butler University provides a welcoming and flexible urban setting for conferences and camps with summertime accommodations on our campus. We are extremely proud of our long tradition of academic excellence, and trust you will enjoy our beautiful campus and facilities.
Butler University offers residential hall housing to both on- and off-campus groups for summer conferences and camps from Memorial Day Weekend through the last full weekend in July.
University facilities are available for rent when not in use for academic activities. Space options range from small conference rooms to large auditoriums, most with state-of-the-art audio-visual equipment. Local and national organizations have found Butler to be a pleasant, productive, and convenient location for seminars, conferences, and meetings.
