Nestled in Central Kentucky, Keeneland is known worldwide for hosting premier Thoroughbred racing and serving as the largest Thoroughbred auction house. Set against rolling hills of Kentucky Bluegrass, this National Historic Landmark boasts iconic limestone architecture and breathtaking landscape that provide a timeless, elegant setting perfect for any occasion.
Our Venues
Keeneland currently offers two venues for hosting private events: the Clubhouse and Keeneland Room. Both locations provide elegant settings and tailored amenities, each of which promises you and your guests an exceptional experience.
Food & Beverage
Comprised of highly trained professionals with diverse backgrounds and cooking styles, the Keeneland Hospitality team prefers to set trends, not follow them. Our philosophy, spearheaded by Managing Director Chef Marc Therrien, is that food and drink are designed to tell a story with flavor profiles that captivate and satisfy.
From seasonal cuisine to craft cocktails, every element of the dining experience is designed with you in mind. Our ability to craft custom menus is unmatched and we are dedicated to ensuring that every detail embodies a commitment to quality and innovation. With many of our ingredients sourced from local farms, our work proudly represents the best of the Bluegrass, bringing fresh, regional flavors to every dish.
