End: Saturday, May 3, 2025 4:00PM

Celebrate the fast pace and exhilaration of the 151st running of the Kentucky Derby at The Phoenician’s sixth annual Derby Day Porch Party. The event will be filled with Southern-inspired cocktails, cuisine, hospitality, and fun. The Derby Day Porch Party will take over the dining room and porch at Mowry & Cotton, where large TVs and projection screens will be set-up to catch the race excitement. Guests are encouraged to get gussied up and don their fanciest hats, spring dresses and sharpest suits, and prizes will be awarded for several best dressed categories. Mix and mingle while sipping on signature cocktails created for the occasion, including classic mint juleps. A wide array of sweet and savory Southern delicacies will be served. A portion of the event’s proceeds will benefit local nonprofit, After the Homestretch-Arizona, which protects the legacy of former racehorses through reconditioning, retraining and re-homing. Admission includes all food, two signature cocktails, Woodford Reserve bourbon samples, contest prizes, a take home bag, and activities.
