Lights Under Louisville | Nov. 10 – Jan. 1, 2024
An experience unlike anywhere else in the world, Lights Under Louisville allows families to drive underground through a portion of 17-miles worth of subterranean passageways for its annual holiday celebration. Taking place in the Louisville Mega Cavern, the annual holiday event takes around 30-minutes to drive through and features over 900 lit characters with a variety of themes, a laser-light show, and features over 6.5 million points of light. Roll your car windows down as you ride through the cavern as it stays approximately 58 degrees year-round and is one of the country’s only drivable light shows that you can do during the daytime since it is fully underground.
