Zombie Attack has always been a free event, and open to everyone, however, donations that help with event permits and additional event costs are always welcome.

Since 2005 when the idea for a zombie-themed birthday celebration first attracted 100 participants who stumbled through the Highlands neighborhood visiting local bars along Bardstown Road, the event has grown, a lot.In recent years, more than 40,000 zombie-loving members of the public have shown up for the free event.

To safely accommodate the ever-growing hoard of undead who take part, Miranda Jansing, the event'snew organizer, is moving the annual Zombie Attack tothe Waterfront Park area which will provide additional room for zombies to roam and more space for vendors,music and food trucks.
