The Guardsmen Kentucky Derby Party 2025
Fluff up your favorite Kentucky Derby finery and be a part of The Guardsmen’s 13th Annual Kentucky Derby Party in the General’s Residence at Fort Mason Center For Arts & Culture in its beautiful Upper Fort Mason location (enter at Bay and Franklin streets). Celebrate the 151st Annual Kentucky Derby, the longest continuously running sporting event in the U.S. Break out your Derby attire — seersucker, bow ties, sun dresses, fancy hats, and whatever else makes you stand out among some of the San Francisco Bay Area’s classiest residents. Indulge in Mint Juleps, bourbon, and savory bites at a hosted bar while viewing the exhilarating race in a first-class setting. Enjoy free cigars from Telford’s Pipe & Cigar in Mill Valley, CA. Enjoy San Francisco Bay views inside and outside The General’s Residence, where music and dancing, sporting lawn games, an auction, and a raffle spice up the proceedings. Wear your best spring frock or sporting suit for this affair, which encourages traditional Derby attire and awards prizes for the best dressed and most creative outfits evoking the spirit of the day.
