Belknap Fall Festival

The Belknap Fall Festival fills the Douglass Loop in Louisville's Belknap neighborhood, organized by the Belknap Neighborhood Association. Adam Lee, then a Douglass Loop business manager, created it in 1994 to bring the neighborhood together, and it grew into a two-day event of art, music, local food and family fun that drew more than 18,000 people in 2011. Dozens of local and regional performers take the stage, food trucks and neighborhood restaurants serve seasonal bites, and local vendors and artists sell handmade goods and original art.
