Meanwhile, fans will be able to sip on some spirits with over 50 Kentucky bourbons on hand with the selections curated by Fred Minnick, Edward Lee and Chris Cosentino. With renowned local chefs and over 20 participating Louisville restaurants, there will be plenty of food choices as well.

Saturday's lineup will boast the Steve Miller Band, Eddie Vedder, Band of Horses, Paul Rogers, Amos Lee, Buddy Guy, Kenny Wayne Shephard, Chris Robinson Brotherhood, ZZ Ward, Shawn James and the Shapeshifters and Fantastic Negrito.

Sunday will bring another solid day of rocking with Stevie Nicks, Joe Bonamassa, Gary Clark Jr., Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue, Johnny Lang, G. Love and Special Sauce, Nikki Lane, actor Kiefer Sutherland and The Bluegrass Situation all slated to perform.
