LOUDER THAN LIFE FESTIVAL:

Louisville’s Louder than Life festival kicks off its inaugural event on October 4 and 5 at Champions Park on the city's Ohio River waterfront. The weekend's heavy-hitting lineup include Judas Priest, Kid Rock, and Korn, but electrifying performances aren't the only in store. In addition to two star-studded days of music, the festival boasts a Whiskey history tour by Jack Daniels, a Germantown presented by Jagermeister, and an interactive exhibit hosted by Crazy Dave's Music Experience. Between the bands, the celebrity chef-curated food offerings, and the riverfront atmosphere, Louder than Life promises to be an unforgettable festival experience for fans of all ages. 


BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Louder than Life is the brainchild of Danny Wimmer, a festival organizer who created the event to highlight Louisville's vibrant rock scene and reputation as "the culinary capital of Bourbon Country". Louisville's bountiful food and drink scene share center stage with some of the world's most acclaimed rock acts over the course of the two-day festival, which includes special installations by Jack Daniels, Jagermeister, and numerous celebrity and local chefs. Situated along the Ohio River in the city's verdant Champions Park, Louder than Life promises to bring together numerous culinary and musical traditions in one unforgettable weekend of music, food, and fun.


Louder Than Life lineup details and ticketing packages are under wraps for now, but you can start making your plans to be in Louisville thanks to the announcement of the new dates. Additional details for the 2018 Louder Than Life festival will be announced in late spring.

    LouderThanLife lived up to its name.

    by XxEsperxX on 10/14/14Champions Park - Louisville

    Louder Than Life was absolutely incredible to say the least. Judging it solely on the music and performances, it was truly an unforgettable experience. There were at least 6 bands that I was extremely excited to see, and at least 6 more that were just bonuses. Several of the bands, including Nothing More, Five Finger Death Punch, and Motionless In White gave absolutely stellar performances while also delivering incredible vocals. Too often a band "sucks" live, but that was not the case for ANY of the bands I saw. I couldn't tell you much on the food because I'm gluten intolerant, but it looked like hardcore, man food! (In a good way) all in all, a spectacular festival. I will definitely be coming back next year!

    Great event

    by Xdfisher on 10/14/14Champions Park - Louisville

    Limp bizkit and Korn was worth the price of the two day ticket. So it was like Sunday was a bonus. Then Volbeat killed it. Great experience

    I enjoyed all of the performances!!! & the timing was great along with the amazing food. The only downfalls were the port-a-pots needed to be re-stocked/cleaned more often and the entrance and exit of the vehicles need improved. At one point we sat still for 45 minutes straight..didn't budge. Thank you for having an awesome festival!!!

    Korn was great!!!!

    by Anonymous on 10/13/14Champions Park - Louisville

    I was impressed on the neatness and the way the food and drink tents was set up. Did not wait long in lines. The set up of stages. Did not wait long in between bands. It was well planned.

    LOUDER THAN LIFE!

    by Morgana7x on 10/13/14Champions Park - Louisville

    This festival was great considering it was the first year. They had a nice set up and variety of food, drinks, etc. Bathrooms were a bit of a problem on day one, but they brought in more for the second day to make up for it. Great job actually listening to the comments from ticket holders! Great weekend!

    LTL was AWESOME!!

    by JessicaMarie2014 on 10/10/14Champions Park - Louisville

    This music festival was amazing!!! It was the first LTL festival, so everything was new waters as far was what to expect, and how everything would be handled. This was also my FIRST EVER concert!! The lineup was amazing!! I surprised my boyfriend with weekend tickets, and he was SO excited because Volbeat and Five Finger Death Punch are two of his three favorite bands (the only thing that would have made the trip better was if Avenged Sevenfold was playing too!). The gourmet man food was awesome; you could walk around and get anything from lobster, to noodles, to pizza or fancy grilled cheese! Bottles of pop and water were $3, so they were a great deal! There was SO much to experience with bourbon and whiskey, Louisville having a reputation for both. Being only until next Wednesday, I was bummed I couldn't drink and try new stuff, but there was so much variety for anyone old enough! There were PLENTY of port-a-potties for everyone, and you could rent lockers online before the event, and they really were a blessing, since there was no readmission! We didn't have to worry about carrying around our bags or souvenirs all day! The stages were right next to each other, and they were divided by a corridor for wires and event workers, so as long as you had a good spot, you could see both sides really well! At one point, Papa Roach came down during his performance and I could have reached out and touched him! The workers were amazing too, and they all deserve bonuses for each person they helped down after crowdsurfing! I didn't know what to expect as far as people getting crazy or moshing or anything, but the crowdsurfers all got passed to the front of the stage, and then the event security/woirkers caught them, helped them down, and sent them off in the right direction so they could go have fun. They even helped this girl in a wheelchair crowdsurf and get down!! Overall, a GREAT weekend, and TOTALLY worth every penny. I WILL be going again next year!! :D GO LTL!!! Thank you so much to anyone that might read this that helped out or was involved!!

    Reignited my love of all things Rock!!

    by JoelWillie on 10/10/14Champions Park - Louisville

    Barely waited in line for a single thing(beer,food and porta potty). Ability to make our way however close to the stage we wanted made this experience one we will never forget. Even the smaller stage had the crowd going nuts. Can't recommend enough and are ready for next year.

    Seating not good

    by Shadowone on 10/10/14Champions Park - Louisville

    I thought the event itself was good although I hadn't heard or even liked most of the bands, I only went Sunday but all and all I enjoyed it something different. My complain is we bought VIP tickets and on the tickets there was a section and a letter and a seat number, well there is none of the above except a section marked VIP. To see the stage, where to me was the main man, Kid Rock, we went out of vip section and over in front of the stage, not down front but at least to where you could see. I just thought there would be seating in front of stages so you could see instead unmarked bleachers and couches in a tent that if you was in you could not see the performers, that is my only complaint.

    Fun event - great music!

    by runr1971 on 10/10/14Champions Park - Louisville

    We had a great time at the Louder than Life Festival, both days were full of awesome music and lots of food and drink choices. Loved the VIP area & having a locker (we bought VIP tickets for ourselves and General admission tickets our daughter and her friend). Enjoyed visiting the vendor booths. Definitely will attend next year if it comes back to Louisville.

    Volbeat has a new super fan

    by kidrocksmyworld on 10/9/14Champions Park - Louisville

    I was impressed great festival loved the staggering of the groups playing on 3 stages. I went with a VIP ticket and would like to see just a few more perks for the money. Also another suggestion as the musical acts progress in popularity to the headliners maybe increase the stage time for those performers. I had a blast and would make the 3 hour drive to go again next year!
