Dripping with Derby-day decadence, southern charm, and city-chic rooftop vibes - all the glam, fun, and festivity you’re dreaming of has arrived! It’s time to don your dapper best and ride high into Derby Day at Elsie Rooftop, where Southern charm meets Manhattan sophistication for a 151st Kentucky Derby celebration that’s purebred fabulous, starting at 3:00pm on Saturday May 3, 2025.
Grab your $39 GA Ticket (an $82 Value) that gets you access to a 2 Hour Premium Open Bar Serving Mint Juleps, Kentucky Mules, Yellowstone Kentucky Bourbon Cocktails, Codigo Tequila Cocktails, & Whispering Angel Rosé from 3:00pm until 5:00pm, and 1 Hour of Passed Hors D’oeuvres from 4:00pm-5:00pm.
They’re bringing Churchill Downs to the clouds with stunning skyline views, sky-high sips, and style that gallops far beyond the finish line. Think big hats, bold cocktails, delicious eats such as Ceviche, Arancini, White Truffle Croquette, Beef Empanadas, and more, rooftop revelry, as well as a scene as sparkling as the Whispering Angel in your glass.
Sip. Savor. Dance. Watch the Derby! Feel the pulse live from Churchill Downs as it’s broadcast on the big screen, all while a live DJ keeps the beats bumping. From start to finish, every moment is a mix of high society and high energy. So grab your bow ties, fluff those fascinators, drink, eat, and strike a pose!
This is Derby Day at its most divine. See you on the rooftop...
Hold onto your hats and heels. Derby Day is going sky-high! Perch yourself atop the city at Elsie Rooftop, where the 151st Kentucky Derby gets a rooftop glow-up that'll have Churchill Downs tipping its hat in awe. We’re talking high fashion, higher vibes, and the kind of party where every moment is made for Instagram.
Elsie’s transforming into the ultimate Derby dreamland, where Southern elegance meets New York glitz. Strut through interiors by the fabulous Delphine Mauroit - picture plush pink velvets, gleaming marble bars, and Art Deco allure. Then step into the sunshine on the open-air rooftop, because nothing pairs with a Mint Julep like a golden-hour glow.
The Bar? Overflowing. From Mint Juleps and Kentucky Mules to Yellowstone Bourbon cocktails, Codigo Tequila mixes, and bottomless Whispering Angel Rosé, your cup will runneth over with serious flavor. The Bites? Derby-worthy. Expect passed delights that’ll have your taste buds racing.
The Vibe? Unmatched. A live DJ will spin the feel-good grooves, while multiple screens keep the race-day action front and center so you can cheer on your pick with a cocktail in one hand and a canapé in the other. Come for the views, stay for the vibes, and dress to dazzle.
When you're at Elsie, every glance, sip, and snap is a winning moment. Giddy up. Glam up. We'll see you at the top...
