2016 LOUISVILLE ZOMBIE WALK

Jul 31 16

It first started back in 2005 – two horror-loving friends with the same birthday (August 29) decided to have a “different” kind of party for themselves. Fast forward over a decade later: the event is now the world’s largest annual zombie “attack” walk, happening every August, always starting at 8:29 p.m. – no matter the weather, no matter what! For those who don’t know, a “Zombie Walk” is an event where thousands of people come dressed as a zombie and walk down the street just like they were starring in George Romero’s film Night of the Living Dead. (Last year, it was estimated that 35,000 zombies participated.)

The walk starts and ends in the Highlands area of Louisville, Kentucky (my fave part of the city). This year the meeting point will be at the corner of Bardstown Road and Eastern Parkway. Concerts and merriment start after 9:00 p.m. and continue until midnight. So, if you plan to be in or near the Derby City in late August, make sure you attend the zombie walk – even if you’d rather be a spectator or a “zombie hunter” instead. All are welcome.

This year the Zombie (Attack) Walk will take place on August 27. Check out the official links below for more info.
