Keeneland Association Inc

The Masters of Horse Racing! Gorgeous racetrack and immaculate. We went on a drive two months before Derby Day! The staff is hard at work and preparing for open season! So much parking and horse stables every where. Library on premise and a restaurant. More info to come when season starts.

One of the nicest race tracks around! Beautiful grounds, well-run, clean and wonderful staff! Prices are reasonable at the vendor stands and plenty of choices for food and drinks.
Must buy tickets in advance to ensure you get in; races were sold out when we visited. General admission is $15 and get there early to get a bench. Good idea to bring a bag chair; no backyard to sit, no coolers, no backpacks.
Great experience!!

We thoroughly enjoyed visiting Keeneland. The tour guide, Clark, was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Beautiful facility and learned a lot about the history and about racing. Highly recommend this tour, easily accessible for those of us a bit older folks.

This is a race track, but also seems much more. Pageantry when the races are going is interesting, diverse and elegant. The mood of the place is festive, somewhat relax for the uninterested aficionado and exciting. Food and drinks seem to be in abundance. Staff is helpful and gentle. The place cater to all members of the family. Facilities seem impeccable. Definitely a good activity to do, if in the area and especially during the main race seasons (spring and fall).

This review is for the tours only. I’ve never seen the races so I cannot comment on those. However, I’m sure it’s exhilarating.

Our tour guide was Diane and she was absolutely fabulous. Keeneland is rich in history, beauty, and experiences. I would definitely recommend doing the tours if you are not familiar with horse racing. They have several different tours so pick which one suits you best. I believe tours are seasonal; call or look at their site to make sure. They also have so many events throughout the year so make sure to stay up to date on those!

Overall, just a great central bluegrass Kentucky experience. Definitely a must-do if you’re here during Oct and April. Thank you Keeneland for your hospitality, we can’t wait to visit again.

I was advised to go before 10:00 a.m. so I could see the thoroughbreds work out. It worked, delightful to watch.

Then was able to see November Breeders auction. Beautiful horses brought on the stage and bid on--most bidding done within 90 seconds.

Grounds are beautiful and relaxing. No costs to walk the grounds.

We visited the track early on a beautiful summer morning. No meets at this time of year, but we grabbed breakfast from the Track Kitchen and enjoyed it while waiting for the horses. Very fortunate to see training at the main track; watching them run is a sight to see.
Also drove around the grounds - gorgeous! - and really enjoyed our time here.
Definitely worth a stop even in the off-season.

You win some, you lose some. It was such a fun experience, and I totally get how it could become addictive. The horses were beautiful! EVERY employee were fun, helpful and informative. We learned so much?
I WOULD RECOMMEND

Enjoyed the park, beauty, hospitality - even in the off season they are open, let you walk and tour facilities on your own, see the track, box houses, go to stadium, tour beautiful grounds, see horses ( early in morn), see gift shop etc. It's all very clean, well maintained, quality painted, seems like nothing but the best everywhere. But the landscape, seems like thousands of acres of beautifully maintained grounds. I can't even keep my little yard half as good as they keep there's! Now the gift shop is exquisite too both that's both in quality too and the related prices.

We were here today for an employee tour only. The day was rainy, but it was so incredibly beautiful. I learned so much from Paul, our tour guide! He was knowledgeable obove and beyond mere Keeneland history. You could tell he was a lifelong lover of the sport!

One of the points he continuously reminded us of was the desire for Keeneland to remain historically beautiful and maintain a glorious green space. They have done that so well. It was a highly wducational experience and I enjoyed every minute!

Races begin next Friday and I would love to go back!!

Sat was windy, cold and the occasional drizzle. Went back Sunday, definitely less crowded and the weather was a little better. Had a total blast...
It is absolutely beautiful 😍
We will be back, soon.

We had a blast. Betting was easy, Our Horse Won. Staff was kind, helpful and friendly. Clean beautiful grounds!!

Always a fun time at Keeneland. You can have hours of fun and it is inexpensive to go - even with grandstand seats. Food is good. The bread pudding is delicious.

Keenland Racecourse was so much fun on opening day today. The weather was perfect. The track was fast. Won a few races. Crowded but the service was good. Lines for food and drink were short.

I went here on a field trip with my school, and everything was absolutely gorgeous. The tour guides were super sweet and kind, open to any questions, etc. I recommend going sometime! It's super clean and organized. The track is super cool, too! If you're a history architecture lover, I highly recommend going. The limestone and overall structure of the whole thing is mind-blowing!

The owners experience was second to none! The gift shop was great! The drinks and all of the food were some of the best we’ve ever had at a track! Candidly, if you’ve never experienced Keeneland, you need to go!

What a fantastic experience. The historic buildings and gardens are a beautiful setting for a great day of racing entertainment. Most of the patrons were dressed to impress and the staff was friendly.

We are from Detroit and we spent the day at Keeneland (a morning tour and an afternoon of racing) and it was fantastic! Our tour guide Clark was absolutely the best! Knowledgeable! Friendly! Funny! There was never a dull moment!! I've been to a few tracks across the country and Keeneland is right at the top of the list. We can't wait to go back!!!

Loved this 0lace.with we.could have been here during live racing but we did get to see part of the yearling sale. Beautiful place.

Keeneland's grounds are so beautiful. The atmosphere is a lot of fun. Easy to place your bets. The venue is just a great place visually. The races always are exciting. And placing even the smallest of bets make it even more fun to watch
