A great option to bring the whole family out and support some local artists.

The 54th Annual Middletown Family Fun Fest is back this Friday and Saturday at Wetherby Park, easily one of our favorite parks in Louisville.

Saturday also has a full lineup ending with a 150-drone SkyZone show at 9:30pm.

If that isn't enough to convince you, there will also be a Mark's pie eating contest, a closest to the pin competition, goat yoga, a dog show, a free microchip clinic, a community parade, 100-plus artisan vendors, and a kids zone. I'm not sure how they're even packing so much into one weekend. Free to attend!
