Doors Open 5:30 PM – Cash Bar

Join us for one of NIAF’s most festive and fashionable evenings of the year as we celebrate the excitement of the Kentucky Derby — with a touch of Italian elegance.

While the Derby is America’s most celebrated race, its spirit of pageantry, fashion, and celebration echoes the grand horse traditions of Italy — from the historic Palio di Siena, where neighborhoods compete in a thrilling race through the heart of the city, to the timeless Italian love of gathering, food, and festivity.

Last year’s event was unforgettable, filled with energy, laughter, and community. This year promises even more.

Come for the dinner, enjoy the race and dance the evening away with Gypsy Blue. And leave with new friends.
