I’ve been to the Kentucky Exposition Center over a hundred times for different shows, conventions, flea markets, and you name it, and each time the same thought goes through my mind: This facility is absolutely perfect for this function!

The Kentucky Exposition Center is the most VERSATILE venue I’ve ever encountered. I can’t even imagine an event this facility isn’t more than capable of hosting and handling, and doing both to the complete satisfaction of the conference, convention, trade show, retreat, animal trainer, horsemen, concert,  flea market, and anything else you can think of. I’m serious: this venue has facilities for anything!

This facility is one of the top ten venues of this type in the States, with over a million square feet of contiguous climate-controlled spaces of all kinds.  Nobody is relegated to the upstairs here, either; everything is on the ground floor.

I’ve been to small, one-room functions here, enormous two-wing trade shows and flea markets here, business conferences that needed half a wing here, and horse shows that required a wing and the facilities outside.

Right next door to the Kentucky Exposition Center is a Six Flags park, for after hours or for a fun place for your family to hang out while you’re at the gun show!

This venue is easy to find, too; once you’ve exited into Louisville proper, just keep going until you see the horses!  It’s just a little past Cardinal Stadium, which is, in fact, part of the exposition center.  Handy!

FAQ

The Kentucky International Convention Center, right in the heart of downtown Louisville, is large, lush, and beautiful to behold.

I’ve never actually seen a convention center with so many rooms, in fact.  The Kentucky International Convention Center has over 300,000 square feet of space, a 30,000 square foot ballroom and 52 meeting rooms, and all under one roof.

WiFi, and plenty of outlets, too.  I know, because I’ve personally been to two education conferences and an electronics trade show here.

The venue’s many and varied world-class facilities may be found if you click here.

Handy parking, too!  And, of the 10,00 hotel and motel rooms in Louisville, 2,00 of them are within walking distance of the convention center.
