Live horse racing August and September at Kentucky Downs in Franklin Kentucky.

This year’s dates for racing at Kentucky Downs are August 28th, 30th and 31st, September 4th, 6th, 7th and 10th. Kentucky Downs hosts one of the most exclusive thoroughbred horse racing meets in North America. From a VIP experience at the Finish Line to free tailgating and General Admission on the final turn and stretch, Kentucky Downs provides a unique experience.

Kentucky Downs is home to America’s only European-style (all turf) racecourse, and at one mile and five-sixteenths in length, it is one of the longest tracks in the nation. Unlike other racetracks, which are typically oval, the course at Kentucky Downs is kidney-shaped, featuring undulation and a unique right-hand bend. Kentucky Downs is one of the top-rated tracks by the Horseplayers Association of North America.
