at Hotel Bourré Bonne
4p - 9p Derby Day Watch Party
9p - 1a The Rose Lounge Derby Night

On Derby Day, the rooftop of Hotel Bourré Bonne transforms into one of the most coveted vantage points in the city as The Rose Lounge hosts an elevated Derby Day Watch Party & evening rooftop celebration high above downtown Louisville.

Beginning at 4:00 PM, guests gather in the stunning indoor and open-air rooftop setting of The Rose Lounge for a Derby Day Watch Party presented by Smokeasy Cigars. The space becomes a stylish rooftop social club where fashionable Derby weekend guests come together to celebrate racing’s most iconic moment.

Throughout the afternoon, DJ sets and live entertainment create an energetic backdrop as guests enjoy the rooftop atmosphere, dramatic city views, and a vibrant crowd of Derby weekend cigars and tastemakers. Large viewing screens throughout the lounge ensure guests don’t miss a moment of the day’s racing action, culminating with the running of the Kentucky Derby.

Following the race, the celebration continues as the evening seamlessly transitions into The Rose Lounge’s late-night rooftop experience. From 9:00 PM to 1:00 AM, the space evolves into a seductive, high-design lounge atmosphere where guests move between the indoor and open-air terrace while DJs build the energy into the night.

Equal parts Derby watch party, rooftop celebration, and luxury lounge, this Derby Day experience offers guests a place to gather, celebrate, and continue the festivities long after the race has been run.
