Louisville is probably one of the most exciting cities, especially when it comes to a family-friendly event. However, there are only few(I think) that can be considered as family friendly. 

I decided to just choose some of the most family-friendly and educational events happening over the weekend (except for the thunder over). 

Here is the list of events for April 23rd and 24th Events Around Louisville KY. Enjoy!
