Arts & Entertainment
Experience Louisville's thriving arts, music & cultural scene
You can really do it all in Louisville. From spending the entire day in one of the city’s world-class museums, like the Speed Art Museum, to immersing yourself in downtown Louisville’s cultural attractions like 21c Museum, the Frazier History Museum, KMAC, or the Muhammad Ali Center.
For admirers of the body in motion, there’s nothing like the Louisville Ballet, the state ballet of Kentucky. Or, catch a play or concert at one of our many theaters and venues including the Kentucky Center for Performing Arts, Actors Theatre and the Louisville Palace.
