Blue Grass Stakes Tickets

The Blue Grass Stakes is a premier Grade 1 Thoroughbred race for 3-year-olds, staged each April at Keeneland Race Course in Lexington, Kentucky. Run at 1 1/8 miles on dirt, it anchors Keeneland’s spring meet and serves as a pivotal Kentucky Derby prep, sending many contenders on to Churchill Downs. First run in 1911, the Blue Grass blends history, high stakes, and modern speed to deliver one of American racing’s most anticipated spring showdowns.

Fans can expect a vibrant scene set against rolling bluegrass and Keeneland’s classic grandstand, a competitive field, and a strong undercard that turns the day into a festival. Come for close-up views of rising stars, sharp handicapping battles, and signature Kentucky hospitality, from local flavors to a toast-worthy bourbon lineup. It is a standout experience for anyone chasing unforgettable moments at the track.
