+ Ali Festival
Thursday, June 3 to Sunday, June 13
The annual Ali Festival is a celebration that marks the anniversary of Muhammad Ali’s passing and celebrates his impactful legacy and love for Louisville.
It will take place from June 3 to June 13, 2021. With the recent societal issues that continue to shake up our world—the coronavirus pandemic, a reawakening of racial justice and equality, and a consequent downturn in the tourism industry—the 2021 Muhammad Ali Festival is crafted to provide inspiration, entertainment, education, and activation through events that generate a sense of unity, justice, and a rebirth of Muhammad Ali’s hometown of Louisville.
The Ali Center will be open every day through the Ali Festival from 12 to 5 p.m.
