the east end brief
this newsletter exists to help you notice what’s happening around louisville — early enough to actually plan around it.
no endless lists. no guessing. just things you can put on your calendar or act on this weekend.
boating, rv & outdoors supershow (jan 30–feb 1)
kentucky exposition center
boats, campers, travel trailers, and outdoor gear all under one roof — running friday through sunday.
do this now: go earlier in the day if you actually want to browse. afternoons get crowded fast.
why it matters: it’s one of the few true all-weekend events right now — and a reminder that warmer weekends aren’t that far off.

louisville chocolate, wine & whiskey festival (jan 31)
mellwood arts center
an easy, indulgent saturday night option with tastings, vendors, and indoor energy.
do this now: grab tickets ahead of time. sessions tend to sell out as saturday gets closer.
why it matters: perfect date night or friends plan when it’s cold and you want something that feels like an occasion.

kill tony’s martin phillips live (feb 1)
louisville comedy club
martin phillips from kill tony is in town sunday night.
do this now: buy tickets early. comedy club shows with recognizable names don’t linger.
why it matters: a clean way to cap the weekend without committing to a long night out.

that’s it for this week.
one small move makes weekends better: pick one thing and lock it in early.
this newsletter exists to help you spot those options before everyone else does.
more soon,
