What To Do This Weekend

Do you have what it takes to be a Kentuckiana Idol? You can audition Saturday for a panel of judges at 4th Street Live!, where they will select the top five singers — four finalists who will get the chance to skip to the head of the line when the American Idol bus tour auditions come to Louisville on August 30, and one finalist who will go directly to the second round of American Idol auditions. If singing is not your strong suit, then from galas and concerts to fair rides and partying on the street, there's plenty of fun to be had by you and your family.

What To Do This Weekend

This weekend, watch a battle for the throne in Kentucky Shakespeare's production of Richard II at the C. Douglas Ramey Amphitheater in historic Old Louisville’s Central Park. The play is part of the Kentucky Shakespeare Festival, the oldest free Shakespeare festival in the country. This weekend also offers opportunities to admire the beauty of multiple varieties of daylilies (even from a hot air balloon!), bid on a date with a bachelor for a good cause, have some family fun at the track, or catch a movie or free outdoor concerts.
