Keeneland will be hosting the Breeders’ Cup World Championships during our wedding weekend, one of the most prestigious horse racing events in the world! If you’re looking for something fun to do while you’re in town, this is a uniquely Lexington experience. Tickets go on sale April 21st. If you’re planning to attend, there are a couple of tailgating options: you can reserve a spot in the main parking lot with a purchased parking pass, or enjoy a more laid back, and free, experience on “The Hill.”
