The Kentucky Derby Museum (including the Store and Derby Café) will remain open for its regularly scheduled hours with available personnel. In the rare case of a closure due to weather, announcements will be posted via our website and social media outlets. A recording will also be added to our main line, (502) 637-1111, providing additional details regarding the closure.
In most cases, tours proceed rain or shine. Most tours have an outdoor component, so please dress accordingly. Please note that the use of umbrellas is prohibited when horses are present. For the safety of our team members and guests, we continuously monitor tour routes and the weather, and may decide to shorten, postpone or cancel tours due to certain weather conditions such as lightning storms, severe weather warnings or violent acts of nature. For questions regarding tour status, please give us a call at (502) 637-1111 for the most up-to-date information.
