With everything Louisville has to offer, there is no wonder why we were named the "Top U.S. Travel Destination for 2013" by Lonely Planet. Louisville is home of the Kentucky Derby, Louisville Slugger, fried chicken and one of the nation’s biggest convention facilities. At a huge 1.2 million square feet, the Kentucky Exposition Center is the perfect host for your exhibit. We are located at the junction of Interstate 65 and Interstate 264, across from the Louisville International Airport and seven minutes from downtown. 

 Louisville is a city that offers our guests the warmth and hospitality of the South, the convenience and ease of the Midwest, and the sophistication and cultural creativity of a major metropolitan location. Louisville is the home of the Kentucky Derby, Louisville Slugger, and fried chicken.
