Fall is the season of festivals in Louisville and Southern Indiana. Don't miss out on the outdoor activities our area has to offer during this beautiful season. Although Indiana isn't home to canals and gondolas, you will feel like an Italian for a weekend in Late September by making the short trip across the river to Indiana. Right "in the heart of Jeffersonville" on 129 Court Avenue, the Italian Festival will be held September 27th-29th. Admission is only $3 per person and free for children under the age of 5.
Adrienne & Co. Bakery and Cafe is sponsoring this event and will feature Italian foods, pastries, desserts and drinks. You can enjoy live music, including Franco Corso "The Voice of Romance" who will be performing on Saturday night. Bring your appetite because there will be several contests from spaghetti to cannoli eating. If you are skilled in the kitchen and have any pizza dough tossing experience, bring your "A" game! If you like to keep things spicy, Miguel's salsa will sponsor a Hot -pepper eating contest. For the wine lovers, Old 502 Winery wants you to show your athleticism in the Grape Tossing Contest. Children and adults will be entertained with plenty of activities and games, arts and crafts vendors, Italian folk dancing lessons and Bocce Courts.
Jeffersonville wants everyone to feel like an "Italian for a day." Make sure to bring the family out to this fun and friendly atmosphere and enjoy the Italian culture!
