Sip Mint Juleps and cheer in style at one of the USA’s oldest and most iconic Thoroughbred horse races, the Kentucky Derby. The Grade 1 stakes race is the highlight of the two week long Kentucky Derby Festival held in Louisville Kentucky.

Commonly known in the US as ‘The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sport,’ the Kentucky Derby is only two km long making for a thrilling race. The Derby is traditionally a stylish affair where race goers enjoy the event’s signature drink, the Mint Julep, and ladies wear large and elaborate hats. The event is also star studded as celebrities turn out in their best race gear to cheer on the winner.
