Music, & lots of it.

Traditionally, a Railbird is a horse racing enthusiast known for sticking close to the action, hanging on the rail as each contender comes barreling down the track.

For one special weekend in June the term takes on an added meaning during the Annual Railbird Festival. 2 days. 3 stages. World class artists.

Enjoy Unique Bourbon Experiences

Railbird celebrates the spirit of Kentucky with highly-curated bourbon experiences in The Bourbon Hideout! Find hand-selected barrels from Kentucky's finest distilleries chosen in collaboration with co-owners Justin Sloan and Justin Thompson of Lexington's treasured Justins' House of Bourbon.
