About Louisville Gardens
Louisville Gardens is a historic, multi-purpose arena and convention venue located at 525 W. Muhammad Ali Blvd in downtown Louisville, KY. While redevelopment plans transform the space into Louisville Studios at the Gardens, the venue remains a landmark of the city’s entertainment history. We’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transit, and nearby hotel and dining options to support your plans in the heart of Louisville.
Seating at Louisville Gardens historically accommodates up to 6,000 guests across a flexible layout for concerts, sports, and large-scale events. While the venue is not hosting regular events at the moment, its legacy as a central entertainment hub remains strong. If you’re attending or coordinating events in the area, secure your seats or accommodations through trusted partners. Parking is available at the Louisville Gardens Garage (415 S. Sixth St., 534 spaces) along with nearby public garages. Transit access is convenient via Louisville Metro’s TARC system, with downtown routes and Dixie Rapid lines stopping along Fourth Street and 6th Street. For visitors seeking to stay and explore, the surrounding downtown hotels—such as The Galt House Hotel, The Seelbach Hilton Louisville, Hyatt Regency Louisville, Omni Louisville Hotel, and Louisville Marriott Downtown—offer a range of amenities and easy access to the venue area.
