Louisville is Our Home.
Louisville is the home of Equip Exposition. Through a 40-year partnership with Louisville Tourism, Equip Exposition has established roots in Bourbon City. We encourage our attendees and exhibitors to enjoy the unique hotels, fine restaurants, and one-of-a-kind attractions that our host city has to offer.
Easy to Get To. Easy to Navigate.
As the 16th largest city in the U.S. and the largest city in Kentucky, Louisville is home to over 90 attractions, 17,000 hotel rooms and 2,500 restaurants. Located on the banks of the Ohio River, Greater Louisville is easily accessible and within a day's drive of nearly half of the nation's population. The Louisville International Airport (SDF), only seven minutes from downtown, handles nearly 100 flights per day and offers easy access to the Kentucky Exposition Center.
Driving Directions
The Kentucky Exposition Center is located at the junction of I-65 and I-264 (937 Phillips Lane) in Louisville. Signs reading "Fair/Expo Center" on both interstates lead to the main gate. Visitors may want to beat the traffic by entering Gates 2 & 4 on Crittenden Drive or Gate 6 on Preston Highway. Visitors traveling from out of state by air will find getting to the Kentucky Exposition Center easy as it is located just minutes from the Louisville International Airport. Parking is FREE.
