When you land here you feel rested, recharged, and ready to have a full day at the Expo -- and a full night exploring the city. 

We can’t wait to welcome you.

Louisville is the center of new Southern cuisine, taking the classic and traditional tastes of the region and giving them a modern spin. The scene is diverse, eclectic, and endlessly delicious. Just like at the Expo itself, there’s something for everyone.
