The LEO Weekly Readers’ Choice Celebration Party will take place on Thursday, October 23rd, 6:00 to 9:00 PM at PLAY Louisville, located at 1101 E Washington St, Louisville, KY 40206. The night will be a celebration of businesses, individuals and organizations voted to be “the best” by LEO readers in over 200+ categories!
Join us in this packed night of entertainment and be mesmerized by the Halloween themed decor (come in costume if you like!). While the night isn't considered an awards ceremony, we will be recognizing all of our first place winners and they will receive their complimentary WINNER window cling. Then, throughout the evening, enjoy performances featuring PLAY's Drag Queen Show, Cabaret entertainment by Drag Daddy Productions, magical entertainment by Mike Raymer, a belly of laughs from Comedian Jake Hovis, popular tarot card readings by Ali Longmire, and a roaming photo booth hosted by Pose502. Light food tastings will be provided from a selection of restaurants voted "the best'" by LEO readers.
GA Tickets are available to purchase before the event online for $30, or day of for $40, and includes entry to the party at 6pm, 2 drink tickets, and light food tastings.
Our Non-Profit Sponsor, The Kentucky Humane Society, will have donation boxes and bins on-site for anyone wishing to donate supplies, food, toys, or other items.
Our Partner Sponsor, Stock Yards Bank & Trust, was formed in 1904 to finance transactions in the livestock industry. Today, they help individuals, families, and businesses with a complete line of financial services with their unique focus on personal banking. It’s not new—in fact, they call it “banking, the way it used to be.” They are proud to serve the local community!
Our Supporting Sponsor, One Love Hemp Dispensary has long time roots in Louisville’s local business community. Co-founder Nancy Roberts owned New Earth Organics and Hydroponics 1988-2018, and New Earth Hemp Solutions from 2015-2018. Co-founder Jana Groda has been involved with the Kentucky Hemp program since 2015, serving on the Kentucky Hemp Industries Association board of directors and traveling to Trichome Institute in 2016 for terpene certification. They are each experienced with healing themselves and loved ones, from the symptoms of chronic health conditions using natural and alternative methods. One Love understands the importance of quality products and carries only third party verified CBD.
