Fuckup Nights Louisville: Launch Night

People rarely talk about failure, but we do!

Fuckup Nights is a global movement where people share stories of professional failure, the lessons they learned, and what happened next.

Join us in Louisville for an evening dedicated to Startups and founder failures.

During this edition, we’re peeling back the highlight reel of millions of dollars of funding, pitch competition champions, and more. We’ll hear honest stories from people who have experienced setbacks, made mistakes, and learned valuable lessons along the way.

What to Expect

Real stories: Hear from 3 founders sharing their failures in their startup journey and the lessons behind them.

Honest conversations: Learn what went wrong, what they took away, and what they’d do differently.

Community & connection: Meet people who believe that sharing failures helps us grow.

A fun environment: Think late night show + the Roots - it's an intimate, yet lighthearted environment where you'll groan with the founders and laugh while the band underscores every moment
