Railbird Festival

Nestled in the heart of Lexington, Kentucky, the Infield at Red Mile offers a distinctive blend of charm and history, perfect for any extraordinary gathering. This iconic landmark, part of one of North America's oldest harness racing tracks, boasts a vibrant setting with an architectural style that reflects its rich equestrian legacy. The horse barns and grandstand evoke a sense of nostalgia, transporting visitors to a bygone era.

Amidst this traditional framework, the Infield provides a lively atmosphere that buzzes with excitement and energy, especially during events. The open-air green space is ideal for spreading out a blanket and soaking in the ambiance.

One insider tip is to arrive early and take a leisurely stroll around the track perimeter. You’ll find hidden spots with scenic views of Lexington’s rolling hills, offering a moment of tranquility before the festivities begin. Don't miss the opportunity to savor local delights at nearby vendors, which often serve Kentucky's beloved craft beers and signature Southern dishes, adding a local flavor to your visit.
