Bourbon Lens Thoughts:
Are you traveling to Bardstown, KY next month for the sold out Kentucky Bourbon Festival? Make sure you reach out to Scott as he will be there all weekend and we would love to connect with you while we are there. If you don’t make it this year for 2023, they also announced dates for 2024 so start planning!
The 2023 Edition of the Kentucky Bourbon Festival is just under a month away and tickets have already SOLD OUT. The 2024 Edition will take place in Bardstown Kentucky on September 13-15, 2024
The Kentucky Bourbon Festival announced next year’s festival will be Sept. 13-15, 2024, in Bardstown, Ky., the Bourbon Capital of the World. The festival’s board of directors worked to confirm next year’s dates after tickets for the 2023 festival sold out last week. The festival brings bourbon enthusiasts from all over the globe to celebrate the spirited history and craft of bourbon during National Bourbon Heritage Month.
We’re looking forward to welcoming bourbon enthusiasts back to Bardstown for the 33rd year. We could not be more excited for guests to see what we have planned.
Randy Prasse, KBF COO and President
General admission tickets for the 2023 festival are officially sold out, for the second consecutive year — with VIP packages selling out in the first three minutes when they were released in May. The festival features expanded opportunities for bourbon enthusiasts to engage with the most sought-after brands alongside engaging and immersive educational experiences. With 85% of its ticketed guests visiting from outside of Kentucky, the event continues to serve as an important tourism and economic engine for the entire region.
Each year we improve every aspect of the Kentucky Bourbon Festival experience. We could not be more proud of what we’ve created as we’re seeing the incredible response from whiskey enthusiasts from across the country and the world.
