Be My Neighbor Day 2026 – Louisville
Sunday September 13 @ 12:00 pm – 3:00 pm EDT
Hi, Neighbors!
KET and partners Fred Rogers Productions and PNC Grow Up Great invite children and families to the 10th annual Be My Neighbor Day on Sunday, September 13, 2026, at E.P. “Tom” Sawyer State Park in Louisville from 12-3 p.m.
This free family event builds on the values and themes presented in Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood. It introduces children to caring neighbors and community helpers like local first responders, librarians and more while teaching them the importance of giving back.
