- **Event Name**: 2026 Rockin' Derby Eve Benefit
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 01 May, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Fri, 01 May, 2026 at 11:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Mark your calendars for the area’s longest-running Derby Eve celebration, all in support of the patients and families served by Hospice Care Plus.

Join us for the Rockin’ Derby Eve Benefit Party on Friday, May 1, 2026, from 6–11 PM at Richardson Hall on the Madison County Fairgrounds (3237 Old Irvine Rd., Richmond, KY).

Enjoy an evening filled with dinner, dancing, hors d’oeuvres, a complimentary Kentucky Oaks Lily cocktail, live and silent auctions, a photo booth, games, raffles, and more. An open bar for beer and wine is included, with a cash bar available for mixed drinks.

This isn’t your typical Derby party. Think Derby Day meets rock concert. Break out your big hats, fascinators, boots, band tees, bowties, or sequins. Whether you arrive looking ready for the Winner’s Circle or the front row of a sold-out show, you’ll fit right in.

Back by popular demand, Grouper Soup returns to the stage after bringing the house down last year!

Reservations open Friday, March 27 and will be available through Friday, April 24. A limited number of tables of eight will be available for groups wishing to guarantee seating together.

Be sure to follow this event page for updates, including the live reservation link when it launches on March 27.
