Hospitality Tents at the Kentucky Three-Day Event

While grounds admission and stadium seats are popular ways to see the show, that is only the start of our options. Hospitality tents at the Kentucky Three-Day Event can offer an enhanced experience. Depending on which hospitality option you choose, there are a variety of benefits and varied experiences to be had. Let’s talk about hospitality options at LRK3DE to better understand what may make sense for you when you come to the show!

 

The Kentucky Club

Our Cross-Country day hospitality club is an excellent way to enjoy Saturday’s competition without having to worry about the weather, what to bring to the tailgate, or where the best spots are.

 

A spectacular hospitality tent with outstanding views of the Cross-Country course, it’s also a great location with access to the rest of the course should you choose to go for a walk and see all the jumps. No need to worry about rain – the Kentucky Club has you covered, literally, including two 50-inch closed circuit monitors showing the Cross-Country action so you don’t have to leave your seat. What about food and beverages? We’ve got that too with a lunch buffet, bar and beverage service, and an outdoor fenced-in patio area so you can enjoy the sun when it’s shining.

 

Tickets for the Kentucky Club are $265 for those under 21 and $315 for 21 and over. Children under the age of 2 get in free with a paid adult.  Hurry though, these advanced pricing options are only good through March 3, 2023!


The Lakeside Club


Looking for more than just a one-day hospitality option?

 

The Lakeside Club offers incredible viewing of the competition.

The Lakeside Club heightens your Kentucky Three-Day experience with comfortable, relaxed viewing from a private ringside tent with incredible views of Dressage and Stadium Jumping. Daily lunch buffet, bar and beverage service, and closed-circuit monitors showing all the Kentucky Three-Day Event action are just a few of the perks. You also receive preferred parking, an event program, access to the International Trade Fair, Sponsor Village, and the Kentucky Horse Park.

 

Choose from 3-day tickets for access Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, or 4-day tickets to add Thursday as well.

 

Want more options? Add access to the Kentucky Club for Saturday if you prefer to be out on the course. Stay in the ringside tent for the Grand Prix Friday and Saturday nights with a $150 upgrade and experience food & beverage service after the main event’s competition concludes each evening.


The Lexington Club (new for 2023)

Our newest hospitality option brings you more great ringside seating plus on-course action for Saturday! Tickets to this hospitality tent cover Thursday, Friday, and Sunday at the stadium. On Saturday you will enjoy cross country with a special Lexington Club Member’s Only area located within the Kentucky Club. With the same great options on Saturday as the rest of the Kentucky Club, but in a private section for even more stellar service, it’s a wonderful option for the weekend-long hospitality experience.

 

Lexington Club tickets include admission for all four days of the event, preferred parking, and a ringside private hospitality tent that includes closed-circuit monitors showing all the action. You’ll have seating right alongside the arena with both indoor and outdoor options so you can soak in that warm Kentucky sunshine but stay out of the rain. You also have daily food and beverage service, afternoon snacks, an official event program, personalized name badge, and a Kentucky Three-Day Event logo gift to commemorate the experience.

 

It all sounds delightful, doesn’t it? We think so, and it would seem people agree as there’s just a handful of tickets left to this new, exclusive experience so we highly recommend you order your Lexington Club tickets now as they will sell out!

 

The Five Star Club (sold out for 2023)

The most exclusive way to enjoy the experience of the Kentucky Three-Day Event is without a doubt, the Five Star Club. With admission to the grounds from Thursday through Sunday, premiere parking with golf cart service from the lot to the Five Star tent, and the largest and most luxurious hospitality tent on the show grounds we understand how this already sold out! Don’t dismay – sometimes reserved tickets unexpectedly become available and should that happen, we do open them up for sale. The best way to stay in-the-know is to sign up for our email newsletter as that is where we would alert people should any Five Star tickets become available.

 

The Five Star Club offers both indoor and outdoor private seating alongside the ring with premium views of the competition. There are multiple closed-circuit monitors throughout the Five Star Club tent covering all of the action all weekend long, and daily gourmet food service, appetizers, concierge service, and bar and beverage service that includes specialty cocktails and champagne! We also include a personalized name badge, exclusive Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event commemorative gift along with the official event program, a relaxation lounge area, and even access to the on-course Kentucky Horse Park Foundation Cross-Country Hospitality Tent on Saturday – wow! Of course you can also stay in the Five Star Tent Friday and Saturday evenings for the Grand Prix for a small upgrade to complete your exclusive experience.

Athlete Spotlight: Elisa Wallace

February 5, 2026
There are riders whose stories unfold quietly over time, and then there are riders whose journeys feel woven into the rhythm of the sport itself. Elisa Wallace falls into the latter category. A 5* event rider, trainer, and educator, Wallace has built a career defined by curiosity, commitment, and a deep belief in the horses she brings along. Long before she ever cantered out of the start box herself, Wallace experienced the Kentucky Three-Day Event as a spectator. Like many young riders, she watched from the sidelines, taking in the scale of the competition and the electricity that comes with a week where the entire eventing world seems to gather in one place. After spending time in several disciplines as a junior rider, she found her way back to eventing with a focus on understanding the process as much as the outcome. Over time, that approach became central to her program, with an emphasis on developing horses thoughtfully and building confidence step by step. In 2015, Wallace and Simply Priceless, affectionately known as Johnny around the barn, stepped up to the 4* level, now known as the 5* level, for the first time at the Kentucky Three-Day Event. It was a milestone moment, not because it marked an arrival, but because it marked a beginning. The pair returned to Kentucky two additional times between 2016 and 2018, gaining experience with each start and earning a loyal following of fans drawn to their bold cross country style and clear partnership. Propelling themselves onto the international stage, the pair were named alternates for the United States Olympic Three-Day Eventing Team for the Rio Olympic Games in 2016. That same year, Wallace and Johnny went on to compete at the Burghley Horse Trials, followed by the Badminton Horse Trials in 2017, with both events contested as 4* competitions at the time. From Kentucky to Burghley to Badminton, the partnership proved it belonged among the sport’s elite, showing grit, durability, and the ability to meet the demands of championship level eventing. As the years have passed, the Kentucky Three-Day has remained one of many familiar checkpoints along Wallace’s path. Returning with Renkum Corsair, Lissavorra Quality, Let It Be Lee, and Riot Gear, she has taken on the CCI4* and CCI5* levels, using the event as an opportunity to test progress and celebrate growth. Away from the competition arena, Wallace has become widely known for her work with American Mustangs and Off the Track Thoroughbreds; from championship wins to high profile retraining projects, she has helped shift perceptions around what these horses can achieve. In 2012, she earned her first Extreme Mustang Makeover win with Fledge, launching a chapter that would include multiple Mustang projects and titles. In 2018, Wallace claimed the America’s Most Wanted Thoroughbred title with Reloaded at the Retired Racehorse Project, held at the Kentucky Horse Park. She has even brought fan favorite Mustangs Fledge and Rune to the Chewy Demonstration Arena at the Kentucky Three-Day, showcasing their freestyle and liberty training while offering a glimpse into the depth of partnership beyond competition. Education and storytelling remain central to her work. Through clinics, digital content, and an open look into her training program, Wallace shares the reality of producing horses over time, celebrating small wins alongside major milestones and reminding audiences that progress is rarely linear. Whether galloping across the Kentucky Horse Park or cheering on fellow competitors, Elisa Wallace embodies what makes the sport so compelling: dedication, partnership, and the understanding that the journey matters just as much as the destination.
