For one special weekend in August, the term takes on an added meaning during the 2nd Annual Railbird Festival. 2 days. 3 stages. World class artists. All on the historic grounds of Keeneland. Railbird celebrates the spirit of Kentucky with highly-curated bourbon experiences in The Rickhouse and up-close culinary demonstrations with Sip & Savor. The excitement isn’t restricted to the stage. Get in on the action and wager on off-track betting with coast-to-coast simulcast from Del Mar to Saratoga on the festival grounds. Take in the races from an air-conditioned bar and lounge inside Lucky Day Plaza. ARTISTS (Lineup and Schedule subject to change) TBA TICKETS (Subject to change. Does not include Taxes and Fees) TBA |
