Before school starts and summer officially ends, take time to celebrate with a concert, fair, or sporting event this August in Louisville!
The beginning of August brings us The Louisville Jazz Festival at Iroquois Amphitheater. Introduce yourself or revisit this American-born musical form on August 3 with performers like Boney James and Rebecca Jade. This same weekend, indulge in some tasty live-fire cooking with Heritage Fire on August 4. This festival at Waterfront Park invites you to stroll around and sample locally sourced bites created by celebrated kitchens. Pair your drinks with your dishes, and then vote for your favorite! (This event is only for the 21 and older crowd with tickets available online.)
Get your soccer gear and your family ready because The Women’s Cup is coming to Louisville August 9 and 13 at Lynn Family Stadium. You can buy tickets online to cheer on the athletes at this annual club women’s soccer invitational tournament.
Waterfront Park is the place to be this month, with the Sky Soul Festival happening there August 10. This is a celebration of art, culture, and community as performers like Dru Hill, Anthony Hamilton, and KeKe Wyatt take the stage. Check out the vendors as you listen to the tunes with the lovely Louisville skyline in the background.
Celebrating 120 years of fried food and fun, The Kentucky State Fair will run from August 15-25. Choose your favorite event or exhibition from nightly concerts, aerial shows, culinary competitions, fine arts and textiles, and fabulous animal performers. With so much for you and your family to experience, one day may not be enough to explore everything! Kids under 5 enter for free and tickets can be purchased online or at the fairgrounds.
Here’s to wrapping up your summer in style! ☀️
