If you’re a fan of the Kentucky Derby (on race day, who isn’t?), Circa Resort & Casino is the place to be. With several events spread across the property on May 4, whether you want to dress to the nines, chill out in the sports book or take in the race poolside, you are covered.
From 2-5 p.m., Legacy Club hosts a blowout watch party, where guests can don their finest gear and compete in a fancy hat contest (you could win a $250 Legacy Club credit and bragging rights). Live music, hors d’oeuvres and derby-inspired bites, unlimited beer, wine, call spirits and specialty cocktails, as well as a mint julep and Aperol spritz bar, ensure things remain lively. Live audio and high-def televisions make sure you can catch every minute of the race (approximately 3:57 p.m.). The event price is $125 plus tax and includes everything.
If you need a bigger TV, the sportsbook is broadcasting the race, too. With 250 stadium-style seats, couches and a bar, the multistory venue makes for a perfect watch space. And if you bet $25 on the race, you’ll get a free mint julep.
For the hugest viewing experience, plan on reserving a cabana at Stadium Swim and witness the broadcast of the race on the 40-foot-tall screen, with full audio.
