La Fiesta at the Zoo: A Latin American Heritage Celebration (2026)

Celebrate Latin American culture at the Louisville Zoo during this family-friendly festival. Local community partners will be on hand to share information and resources while you enjoy live music and vibrant artwork throughout the day. It's a wonderful opportunity to experience the traditions and artistry of the region in a festive atmosphere. Beyond the cultural performances and art displays, families can participate in a virtual scavenger hunt that guides you through the zoo while teaching kids about animals native to Latin America. Admission is free with your regular zoo entry or membership, making it an affordable way to spend the day exploring both the celebration and the zoo grounds. This event runs from morning through early afternoon, giving you plenty of time to enjoy all the activities at your own pace.
