There’s always one Derby party that I look forward to every year. All the major players in town pull out of all the stops once a year and compete for the best. This year’s winner? Hands down the Rabbit Hole Distillery team.
They’ve teamed up with Esquire and King Sixteen, an experiential marketing firm based here in Louisville. Esquire and King Sixteen have been working together on Derby events for a few years, and when I saw this year’s event I knew this year would be better than ever before.
I’m excited to be attending their Derby closing party this year, and the kind folks at Rabbit Hole would love to see some of y’all there! They’ve been generous enough to offer 5% off any ticket purchase with the code 5GENT. I’ve outlined all tickets packages below and would absolutely love to see some of your smiling faces there! Cause after all, after surviving another Derby we will have a lot to celebrate.
