Explore Lexington

Welcome to Lexington, the horse capital of the world! Lexington is the second-largest city in Kentucky and is in the heart of the bluegrass region.

At the Red Mile and Keeneland, the city’s two top-quality horse racing tracks, visitors can view live races in April and October.

Keeneland, in particular, hosts the Blue Grass Stakes, a crucial preparation for the world-famous Kentucky Derby.

The Red Mile is the second-oldest horse racing track in the United States and is famous for its harness races where horses pull two-wheeled carts called sulkies.

Lexington is home to numerous authentic music festivals including the Festival of the Bluegrass, Kentucky’s oldest bluegrass music festival. The festival is held in early June and includes three stages.

Of course, it’s not Kentucky without sweet Kentucky bourbon! Lexington is home to several bourbon distilleries, including Bluegrass Distillers, Town Branch, Barrel House, and James E. Pepper.
