Areas all over Louisville have experienced an increase of speeding and reckless driving. Street racing is dangerous and illegal. LMPD is working to educate the public and increase traffic law enforcement.
Watch this Public Service Announcement for LMPD
The Louisville Zoo celebrates 41 years of merry — not scary — fun this October with its ever-popular annual Halloween event, Boo at the Zoo presented by Meijer. Tickets go on sale to the general public September 6 at 11 a.m. for the beloved annual event that takes place October 1 – 2; 6 – 9; 13 – 16; 20 – 23; 27 – 30 (Thursday – Sunday nights, October 1 – 30). Tickets will be made available for early purchase to Louisville Zoo members via email on September 1.
Guests can dress up in their wildest costumes for the after-hours event that turns the Zoo into a living storybook, complete with favorite characters brought to life, music, photo opportunities around every corner and, of course, a safe place to trick-or-treat for kids 11 and under. Guests are encouraged to bring their own trick-or-treat bags. Reusable treat bags will be available for purchase at the Zoo’s Gift Shop for $2 (while supplies last).
As Boo at the Zoo presented by Meijer may sell out, purchase your tickets early so you don’t miss out on the fun.
