The Kentucky Derby Museum continues the year-long celebration of its 30th anniversary with a special “It’s a Party” day April 11. Admission prices will be lowered to $2.50 – equaling what it cost to get in when the doors originally opened in 1985 – on this day only, and guests will have the opportunity to commemorate the occasion with a series of unique experiences. 

Several unveilings will take place throughout the day, the biggest of which is the opening of the Museum’s newest showcase, “Stars of the Stands.” 
The Kentucky Derby Museum 30th anniversary commemorative bourbon bottle of Woodford Reserve Distiller Select will be revealed, as will the 30th anniversary commemorative Louisville Stoneware Collection, which consists of a serving platter, julep cup, mug and bowl.

Come join us for a full day of fun and excitement!
