Lights Under Louisville is the perfect holiday tradition for families to enjoy the season safely within their own vehicle. Louisville Mega Cavern has created an opportunity for families to experience the magic of the season while staying safe for COVID times. Guests will need to pre-order tickets that will be scanned through their car window upon entrance to create a contactless experience.
“This year, we are looking forward to Lights Under Louisville even more! Families can join us for a safe, COVID-friendly holiday experience; despite the unprecedented times we have faced as a community. To create an unforgettable holiday tradition, we have added more than one million twinkling lights, a projection mapping experience, a second light tunnel measuring 120 feet and three new themed areas in the past two years. Built over eight weeks, this will be the largest Lights Under Louisville experience, ever,” stated Charles Park, Louisville Mega Cavern Executive Vice President. “We have the wonderful privilege of partnering with Fifth Third Bank to showcase the experience. We look forward to welcoming visitors this holiday season.”
