KFC Yum! Center, Entertaining Kentucky
Anyone heading into Louisville Kentucky might want to check out the calendar at KFC Yum! Center. This new arena for sports and other big events is an exciting venue in the city center. Plan out your holiday to include a visit, checking their fully-booked calendar ahead of time on-line.
This center provides a home for University of Louisville mens and womens basketball. Catch a Cardinals game when they happen to be at home, or watch them in action against your home town side. Another way to support the Cardinals apart from cheering them on is by shopping for merchandise. Items for sale include hats, shirts, sweaters and towels. Buy a pin for mom or special infant wear for a niece or nephew.
Get your tickets at the venue on the day of an event or game, but that could be risky. Other options include in-person ahead of time, phone or e-mail. Their website is full of handy information. If you plan on coming with a large contingent, ask about group discounts and you might qualify. Mention ahead of time if you need wheelchair access.
Besides basketball, attend musical concerts performed by popular artists. Enjoy an ice show. Bring kids to a family oriented presentation. Concession, restaurant and lounge will feed anyone who forgot to have a snack on the way. Catch some air beforehand in the landscaped plaza outside, a little escape from urban Louisville which surrounds KFC Yum!
Close by more things attract visitors from out of town, enough to encourage a stay of several days or a week. Put one whole afternoon aside for exploring Louisville zoo and its inhabitants. Other spots of interest include Fort Knox, Kentucky Derby Museum, Science Center, plus book space on a ride down the Ohio River on a real steam boat.
Fairfield Inn conveniently locates guests within a short drive from KFC Yum! Enjoy in-room coffee making, flat screen TV, telephone and cable while sinking into luxurious bedding. There are also a microwave and mini-refrigerator, so guests can eat a snack at any time of day, even if they get in from an event in the middle of the night and do not feel like finding a table somewhere.
Should an instant snack of this nature not appeal, dining options in your area include familiar favorites with plenty that welcome kids. Ask about delivery from some of these local establishments to your room. Each morning, start the day with a free, casual breakfast in the big, bright hotel guest dining area.
