Welcome to Bowling Green Kentucky

When you give travel the GREEN light, we're geared for fun!

Planes and trains... Cars and guitars... Caves and waves... Rails and trails... Thrills and chills... Charm and farms... We could keep going for days, and that's just what it would take to see and do everything in the Bowling Green area. As the Home of the Corvette, we sure love our fast cars, but the city offers so much more that we think you will be surprised by how much is happening here.

The icing on the Duncan Hines cake is that we're geared for couples, families, and groups with this many options. So come on, rev up the whole crew or recharge just two in Kentucky's third-largest city...
a Classic American Destination!

PLEASE NOTE:

As per CDC recommendations and guidance from Kentucky Governor Beshear, indoor gatherings with unvaccinated people outside the household unit are not recommended at this time. As of April 26, 2021, masks are no longer required for OUTDOOR events with less than 1,000 attendees.

Which Generation Are You?

Themed itineraries

America's Sports Car, the Corvette, has been made exclusively in Bowling Green since 1981, but there have been eight "generations" since 1953.
Each generation's style differs from the other in either subtle or very significant ways, just like our visitors!
Use the generation-themed itineraries as your guide as you explore Bowling Green and Warren County,
because vacation gear in south central Kentucky is full-throttle fun!
