While many tickets for the upcoming Kentucky Derby are already sold, there is still some hope for fans who haven’t yet booked theirs. If you’re one of them, a $90 million project at Churchill Downs can prove to be a blessing for sure. This project, known as the First Turn experience will help give fans the best view of the racetrack during the Derby race.

Informing that there were still tickets unsold, Darren Rodgers, the senior director at Churchill Downs explained how booking seats at First Turn Experience was advantageous. These tickets consist of both seating and dining choices from which fans can choose. While fans might have to purchase tables for 8 or 10 people at the Stakes room, in the First Turn Dining experience, fans can purchase tables for smaller numbers, be it two, three or four people.

Kentucky Derby’s mammoth project gives fans a boost

3,700 seats were built as a part of this project according to WDRB. While a ticket for watching both, the Kentucky Derby and the Kentucky Oaks is reportedly $2,600, the price is much lesser for individual races. The following are the prices for fans who wish to benefit from this $90 million project:
