WFPK Waterfront Wednesday

WFPK Waterfront Wednesday
91.9 WFPK Independent Louisville and Waterfront Park are delighted to announce the 24th season of WFPK Waterfront Wednesday. Proceeds from WFPK Waterfront Wednesday benefit two beloved local nonprofits, Louisville Public Media and Waterfront Park.
This season, WFPK Waterfront Wednesday is giving fans more of what they come for — headliners will take the stage earlier and perform a longer set, following a spotlight on Louisville’s favorite local and regional artists.
Additionally, in April, June and July, The Monarch Living Room Stage will spotlight some of Louisville’s finest musicians. Music is always better together, so bring your instrument, find your people and make music together from 5:00 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. at The Living Room Stage and throughout the evening as an additional fan experience between set breaks.
The free concerts take place on the Big Four Lawn in Louisville’s Waterfront Park, located next to the Big Four Pedestrian and Bicycle Bridge. The lawn opens at 5:00 p.m., with music on the main stage beginning promptly at 6:30 p.m. Food trucks and vendor booths will be available throughout the season beginning at 5:00 p.m.
