The most exciting two minutes in sports deserves a proper warm-up.
Join us for our Wiener Dog Derby, where the shortest legs race for glory ahead of the Kentucky Derby. From 3–5 PM, watch dachshunds dash to the finish line, compete for prizes, and show off their best Derby-day looks.
We’re talking:
Wiener dog races 🐾
Best dressed pups + pawrents 👒
Prizes for the fastest (and most fashionable)🥇
Then stick around as we roll straight into a Kentucky Derby Watch Party and catch the main event at 5:57 PM.
Big hats. Cold beer. Tiny dogs.
Now that’s a winning combo.
