WANT A SAMPLE OF WHAT OWENSBORO HAS IN STORE? GET YOUR EXPERIENCE STARTED WITH THESE FIVE LOCAL FAVORITES.

BBQ

1

It’s indisputable: Owensboro loves barbecue.

From our International Bar-B-Q Festival to our award-winning restaurants, we serve up tangy mutton, savory burgoo and mouthwatering brisket. Visit our storied establishments, and see what the fuss is about firsthand.

GREENBELT Enjoy Owensboro’s natural landscape with the Adkisson Greenbelt Trail. Several miles of paved, multiuse trails circle the city and often join up with parks and sporting complexes.

2 MOUNT SAINT JOSEPH

3

If you’re looking to reset your spirit, there’s hardly a more perfect place than Mount St. Joseph. Set in the picturesque hills west of Owensboro, the Mount offers a retreat center, an overnight respite and the Escape from the Mountain cultural event.

ROMP An Owensboro favorite for nearly 20 years, this three-day festival is the ultimate experience for any bluegrass lover.

4 THE NUTCRACKER

5

Holiday celebrations come into full swing with the Owensboro Dance Theatre’s beloved take on “The Nutcracker,” staged at the RiverPark Center with professional dancers, community members and special guests.
