NuLu
Fest
Now in its 16th year, NuLu Fest is back for a daylong celebration of local culture, art, community and everything that makes NuLu one of Louisville’s most vibrant neighborhoods!
Join us Saturday, September 19, from 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. as the 600–900 blocks of Market Street come alive with music, art, food, drinks, local shopping and fun for the whole family!
The cornerstone event of NuLu celebrates the continued growth, creativity and revitalization of the E. Market Street District while enjoying a full day of live music, local food, regional craft beer, bourbon, cocktails, shopping and activities for all ages. Best of all, NuLu Fest is free and open to the public!
Wander through NuLu, discover something new, grab a bite, enjoy a drink and explore the neighborhood’s many locally owned businesses. Throughout the day, NuLu shops, restaurants and businesses will offer special sales, promotions and other festivities, so be sure to venture beyond the festival streets to see what NuLu has to offer.
Local and regional vendors will line Market St. with handcrafted goods, art, food and more. Food and drinks will be available at several locations throughout the festival, with beer, wine and cocktails available for purchase by cash or credit card. ATMs will also be available throughout the festival.
Getting Here & Parking:
Make a day of it and come ready to explore! Free weekend parking is available on several nearby side streets, along with paid surface lots throughout the neighborhood. If you park at a metered space, be sure to check the meter before walking away to confirm whether payment is required. Some surface lots also require payment.
