Greetings Hilltopper Parents and welcome to Bowling Green, the home of one particularly fast car, a fuzzy mascot named Big Red and the king of cake mix!
From the GM Corvette Assembly Plant and the Duncan Hines Museum exhibit to our rolling countryside and quaint downtown square, we hope you will get to know the community in which your child will be spending valuable time.
The Convention & Visitors Bureau invites you to explore the wide variety of recreational opportunities, museums, cultural venues, shops, and restaurants Bowling Green has to offer. Our unique heritage is yours to discover while visiting the popular attractions or when wandering among the hidden jewels and historic districts.
WKU is not just a collection of buildings; it is an integral part of our community and region. Just as the beauty and hospitality of Southern Kentucky stretch far beyond the city limits, WKU students have a broad impact as vital components of the area’s continued progress.
We think you will realize there is too much here to experience it all in one visit. Besides, your child deserves a nice meal out on the town every now and then! Our information specialists would love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have about the area. For free visitor information, trip planning assistance and more, contact the Bowling Green Area Convention and Visitors Bureau.
