Derby week

America, dressed to the nines

For one week every spring, Louisville becomes the best-dressed city in America. Impeccable tailoring on the men, extraordinary millinery on the women, mint juleps in silver cups and bourbon poured with ceremony. Derby week is high society at full tilt, and everyone is invited who knows how to arrive.

At its centre: Churchill Downs, the twin spires, and the most famous two minutes in racing. Around it: a city of distilleries, southern kitchens and rooftop bars that treats the Derby as its own week-long festival.

We handle every detail (the tickets, the flights, the transfers, the tours) so your only job is deciding what to wear.

The moment

The bugle calls the field, a hundred and sixty thousand voices sing My Old Kentucky Home, and the gates crash open. Two minutes later, somebody’s whole life has changed, and you were there, julep in hand.
