The Big Day is finally here for both Louisville and Jeffersonville! The long awaited Big Four pedestrian bridge will be having its rededication ceremony this Wednesday at 5:00 pm.

The celebration is going to begin with a parade starting on both sides of the bridge. Mayor Fischer and Governor Steve Beshear will lead the Kentucky side and Mayor Moore will be leading the Indiana side. Families, joggers, bikers, and everyone who loves the bridge are invited to participate and decorate their bikes, wagons, strollers, etc. Participants are asked to line up on either ramp.

The celebrating isn’t expected to end after the parade though. Following the parade will be the WFPK Waterfront Wednesday on the river on the Louisville side. This concert is open to the public and will be featuring the Old 97’s, The Whigs, and Dawn Landes. Meanwhile on the Indiana side, downtown Jeffersonville’s bars, restaurants, and businesses will be staying open even later.
