Crimson White & Indigo is a live album by the American rock band the Grateful Dead. It contains the complete concert recorded at John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia on July 7, 1989. The album consists of three CDs, plus a video recording of the same show on one DVD. It was released on April 20, 2010. The video was produced and directed by Len Dell'Amico.

This concert was the last event held at JFK Stadium, which was condemned by the city six days later and would be demolished in 1992.{{cite news | title=City Closes JFK Stadium| date=July 14, 1989 | work=The Philadelphia Inquirer| url= http://articles.philly.com/1989-07-14/news/26134219_1_mayor-goode-fire-department-fire-hazards| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20130729121846/http://articles.philly.com/1989-07-14/news/26134219_1_mayor-goode-fire-department-fire-hazards| url-status= dead| archive-date= July 29, 2013}}{{cite news | title=Wreckers, 1, JFK Stadium, 0| date=April 21, 1992 | work=The Philadelphia Inquirer}} One track from this concert, "Blow Away", had been previously released as a bonus track on the expanded version of the Grateful Dead's last studio album, Built To Last.

The previous concert in this tour, performed at Rich Stadium in Buffalo, New York, on July 4, 1989, was released in 2005 as the album Truckin' Up to Buffalo. That title also was produced on both CD and DVD, but separately rather than together in the same package.

The name Crimson White & Indigo is taken from the lyrics of the song "Standing on the Moon", which the Dead first performed earlier in 1989. The version of this song featured in this release is considered an exceptional performance by fans, with an extended ending improvisation.
