Lebowski Fest
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lebowski Fest is an annual festival begun in 2002 in Louisville, Kentucky celebrating the cult film The Big Lebowski. The Festival's main event each year is a night of unlimited bowling with various contests including Costume, Trivia, Hardest and Farthest Travelled contests. Held over a weekend, events typically include a pre-fest party with bands the night before the bowling event as well as a "garden party" event (a day long outdoor party with bands, vendor booths, games) at the Louisville fest. Various celebrities from the film have even attended some of the events, including Jeff Bridges attending the Los Angeles event.
The Festival is now in its sixth year and has held festivals in Louisville, New York, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and (most recently) in Seattle.
Dates for Louisville 2007 were recently announced.
