Description

(PHOENIX) A Kentucky Derby party without horses is like a mint julep without mint or a Kentucky Derby outfit without a hat or a horse race without jockeys or a ….well you get the idea.  In Arizona, the only Kentucky Derby party with live horseracing is at Turf Paradise Saturday May 6th. It’s the only place in Arizona where you can watch the Derby simulcast and bet on the race, plus you can watch, wager, and win on live local horse racing.

 

It’s the biggest and best Kentucky Derby party in Arizona. Grandstand admission is just $5, and kids 16 and under get in free. There is also live music, a kids fun park with bounce house inflatables, and food and drink specials.

 

Turf’s over-the-top fashion contest is like no other with prizes in categories for Best Ensemble, Outrageous Hats, Best Dressed Gents, Best Dressed Couples, and a Little Bonnets contest for kids 12 and under. The first 5,000 paid admissions get a free commemorative Kentucky Derby glass.
