Louisville Attractions
As Kentucky continues to move through stages of reopening during the pandemic, Louisville’s 120 attractions are also operating in various forms of serving customers. Louisville Tourism is curating information in as close to real time as possible with this list. And for future trip planning, see what normally tops the list of Louisville’s authentic attractions.
As many attractions got creative during a full quarantine, some are STILL offering virtual tours and events for you and your family to enjoy – all at an appropriate social distance.
And for those not traveling yet, what a great way to get an idea of what you might like to explore when you’re ready in person.
