Celebrate Louisville by Participating in the Hometown Tourist Celebration

Even though Derby is over, locals still have a lot to look forward to! All throughout the month of May, the city has been encouraging local Kentucky and Indiana residents to become tourists in their own hometown as part of the Hometown Tourist Celebration. This is a perfect opportunity for residents who still haven't had the chance to see the quintessential Louisville attractions, such as plays at Actor's Theatre and the Frazier Arms Museum.

Locals can look forward to 2-for-1 discounts at over 42 area attractions, a dozen restaurants, and 10 hotels. In addition, there are half a dozen events that are free to the public. One of these events is being extended all the way through October and is called PossibiliTours Walking Tours. The walking tour is held on Friday and Sundays at 10:30 and Saturdays at 2:00, featuring a local volunteer leading you on a free, one hour tour exploring downtown Louisville.

This month long event is being held in conjunction with the Travel Industry Association's Annual National Tourism Week and offers are valid for anyone with a Kentucky or Indiana ID, local college ID, or military ID.
