Kentucky Derby Tickets at Churchill Downs

An important part of the Derby experience to consider is where you’ll be sitting. All of our packages include Kentucky Derby tickets with preferred seating at the Kentucky Derby on Saturday. Tickets to the Kentucky Oaks are included in most ticket categories. With Starting Gate Courtyard and Grandstand seating you’ll be provided with a view of the action as the horses round the final turn, speed past your position and cross the finish line. Clubhouse seating brings you closer to the action and allows you to enjoy a slightly more prestigious atmosphere, and up above, from Millionaires Row, you’ll be rubbing elbows with the who’s who and enjoying the race from a luxurious, climate-controlled environment. Higher seats are generally regarded as superior as they provide a better perspective of the race and allow you to see the action on the back stretch of the race course. The higher the seats the better!
