My hand-picked highlights for this month.
eat
A beloved local favorite, Bar Vetti serves up modern Italian comfort food with a fresh, seasonal twist. From handcrafted pasta to wood-fired classics, every dish feels both upscale and wonderfully familiar. Perfect for a cozy dinner before a night out in the city.
Drink
Just steps away, descend into one of Louisville’s coolest underground cocktail bars. Jimmy Can’t Dance blends live music energy with creative mixology, offering imaginative drinks in a dimly lit, intimate setting. Stay for the vibes — and maybe a jazz set.
Experience
Make your evening unforgettable with a performance of The Nutcracker at The Kentucky Center for the Arts. This iconic holiday tradition combines stunning choreography, enchanting music, and magical storytelling — a must-see for all ages during December.
