Eclipse Events in SoIN

We’re only days away from the solar eclipse – the last one until 2044! The Great American Eclipse is happening on April 8, 2024. While SoIN is not in the path of totality, people in Clark and Floyd Counties will be able to view the eclipse at 95% of totality.

Several parks and attractions in SoIN are hosting viewing parties to celebrate the eclipse. Upland Brewing Co. in Jeffersonville even has a few craft beers brewed especially for the occasion. Click the button for information on eclipse safety, SoIN events and more.
