2016 marks the 40th anniversary of the Holiday Home Tour in Old Louisville, a national historic preservation district boasting the largest collection of Victorian architecture in the county. The tour will feature private residences and historic buildings within the area where the exposition’s grand hall stood from 1883 to 1887 – now the square block that lies between Magnolia and Hill, and 4th and 6th Streets and includes St. James, Belgravia and Fountain Courts. 

Louisville invites you to join the celebration this year as we “Light Up Old Louisville” and tell the story of Thomas Edison, the Southern Exposition and the neighborhood that came to life afterwards.

Oh, and did we mention Evan Williams' will be there offering tour-goers bourbon and egg nog?
