🥂 FORD FIRST TURN CLUB

PREMIUM ALL-INCLUSIVE DERBY HOSPITALITY

This is the centerpiece of the getaway.

And we want to be clear about what you're getting.

The official Churchill Downs hospitality product is Ford First Turn Club Dining.

But calling this simply "dining" doesn't come close to describing the experience.

THIS IS YOUR PREMIUM HOME BASE FOR DERBY DAY.

You're combining premium racing access with indoor hospitality, assigned dining seating, all-inclusive food and included beverages.

Instead of spending an entire day wandering Churchill Downs searching for somewhere to sit, eat or get out of the weather, you have somewhere to call home.

OUTSIDE FOR THE RACING.

INSIDE FOR THE HOSPITALITY.


🏇 PREMIUM RESERVED FIRST TURN SEATING

Your experience includes premium reserved outdoor seating around Churchill Downs' First Turn area.

Watch the early races.

Explore Churchill Downs.

Visit the paddock.

Place your wagers.

Grab a drink.

Then return to your reserved seating whenever you're ready.

And when the Kentucky Derby begins, you're positioned around one of the most exciting places on the entire racetrack.

THE FIRST TURN.

Within seconds of the starting gates opening, the Derby field comes charging toward you as jockeys battle for position heading into that critical first turn.

This isn't watching the Derby on television.

YOU'RE IN IT.


❄️ INDOOR CLIMATE-CONTROLLED HOSPITALITY

Derby Day is a full day.

Kentucky weather can be unpredictable.

That's why the indoor hospitality component is so important.

Between races, step away from the crowds and into an indoor, climate-controlled hospitality environment.

Get out of the sun.

Get out of the rain.

Cool down.

Sit down.

Have something to eat.

Enjoy a cocktail.

Then head back outside when you're ready for the next race.


🪑 ASSIGNED INDOOR DINING SEATING

You're not wandering around Churchill Downs carrying a plate and hoping to find an empty chair.

Your Ford First Turn Club hospitality includes assigned indoor dining seating.

That gives you a place to regroup throughout Derby Day.

The rhythm is easy:

🏇 WATCH A RACE.

🍽️ HEAD INSIDE.

🥃 ENJOY A COCKTAIL.

🪑 SIT DOWN AND RELAX.

🏇 HEAD BACK OUTSIDE.

REPEAT.

YOUR SEAT. YOUR TABLE. YOUR DERBY.


🍽️ ALL-INCLUSIVE CHEF'S TABLE DINING

Derby Day isn't the day we're going to nickel-and-dime you every time you're hungry.

Your Ford First Turn Club hospitality is planned to include:

ALL-INCLUSIVE CHEF'S TABLE DINING

Have lunch.

Come back later.

Grab something between races.

Enjoy the hospitality throughout the applicable service period.

No worrying about what every plate costs.

It's part of the experience.


🥃 BEER, WINE & SPIRITS INCLUDED

Your premium Derby hospitality is also planned to include:

🥃 Spirits

🍷 Wine

🍺 Beer

🥤 Non-Alcoholic Beverages

Have a cocktail.

Grab a beer.

Have a glass of wine.

And you're at Churchill Downs on Derby Day...

HAVE THE MINT JULEP.

It's included.


🥂 THIS IS MORE THAN A DERBY SEAT.

It's the combination that makes Ford First Turn Club special:

🏇 PREMIUM RESERVED FIRST TURN SEATING

❄️ INDOOR CLIMATE-CONTROLLED HOSPITALITY

🪑 ASSIGNED INDOOR DINING SEATING

🍽️ ALL-INCLUSIVE CHEF'S TABLE DINING

🥃 BEER, WINE & SPIRITS INCLUDED

🔄 A PREMIUM HOME BASE THROUGHOUT DERBY DAY

No concession-line mentality.

No worrying about what every meal and cocktail costs.

No spending an entire Derby Day without somewhere comfortable to retreat.

THIS IS HOW YOU EXPERIENCE THE DERBY IN STYLE.


🌹 TRIP OVERVIEW

For more than 150 years, the Kentucky Derby has been one of America's great sporting traditions.

The roses.

The hats.

The Twin Spires.

The Mint Juleps.

The horses.

The pageantry.

APPROXIMATELY 7:30 AM

Take the Twin Spires picture.

Check out the fashion.

Have a Mint Julep.

🌹 DERBY TIME

The horses prepare to take the track.

Churchill Downs comes alive.

Then comes one of the great traditions in American sports.

🎵 MY OLD KENTUCKY HOME

The crowd rises.

The horses step onto the track.

The field moves toward the starting gate.

For just a moment, Churchill Downs seems to stop.

And then...

THEY'RE OFF!

Within seconds, the Kentucky Derby field comes charging toward:

THE FIRST TURN.

Horses battling for position.

Jockeys fighting for their trip.

The crowd roaring.

The field thundering past.

And you're there.

🏆 THE 153RD KENTUCKY DERBY

THE MOST EXCITING TWO MINUTES IN SPORTS.

Not on television.

Not at a watch party.

YOU'RE AT CHURCHILL DOWNS.


🚌 AFTER THE DERBY

We're not immediately throwing everyone into the largest exit crowd of the day.

Enjoy the moment.

Take your pictures.

Talk about the race.

Check your bets.

Let the initial wave of spectators begin moving out.

Then we'll regroup at our designated Departure Depot meeting point and make our way back to the motorcoach.

THEN WE HANDLE THE DRIVE.

Sit back.

Relax.

Talk about the day.

Maybe take a nap.

We'll return to:

🏨 MARGARITAVILLE VACATION CLUB NASHVILLE

Head upstairs to your 1-Bedroom Condo.

You've just experienced the Kentucky Derby.

IN STYLE.


🔑 SUNDAY, MAY 2

After a huge Derby Day, we've intentionally made Sunday easy.

GROUP TWO

11:00 AM — Hosted Lunch

Or do absolutely nothing.

There is no additional scheduled group activity.

This getaway is planned to include admission to the 153rd Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs with the premium hospitality product officially identified by Churchill Downs as Ford First Turn Club Dining.

Departure Depot markets the overall experience as Ford First Turn Club — Premium All-Inclusive Derby Hospitality because the experience extends beyond dining.

Exact seating and table assignments are determined by Churchill Downs and/or the applicable ticket supplier.

Specific rows, seat numbers, table locations or views cannot be guaranteed unless expressly confirmed.

Once Derby inventory has been purchased or financially committed on behalf of a traveler, applicable ticket and hospitality costs may become non-refundable regardless of the reason for cancellation.

Race schedules, hospitality offerings, seating configurations, menus, entry procedures and venue policies are controlled by Churchill Downs and remain subject to change.


🥂 FORD FIRST TURN CLUB HOSPITALITY

Ford First Turn Club hospitality is planned to include reserved outdoor race seating, indoor climate-controlled hospitality, assigned dining seating and all-inclusive food and beverage service during applicable hospitality periods.

Specific menus, beverage brands, service hours, alcohol availability, hospitality areas, seating configurations, table assignments and operating procedures are established by Churchill Downs and may change.

Alcoholic beverages are available only to guests legally permitted to consume alcohol and remain subject to venue policies.

Guests with food allergies or dietary restrictions should notify Departure Depot in advance. Specific accommodations are controlled by the venue and cannot be guaranteed by Departure Depot.


🚌 MOTORCOACH & DERBY TRAFFIC

Private group motorcoach transportation is planned between Nashville and Louisville on Derby Day.

All transportation times are approximate.

Derby traffic can be substantial.

Traffic, road closures, law-enforcement direction, venue procedures, weather and other circumstances may significantly affect arrival and return times.

Motorcoach drop-off and pickup locations are controlled by Churchill Downs, local authorities and transportation officials.

THE MOTORCOACH MAY NOT BE ABLE TO DROP GUESTS DIRECTLY AT THE VENUE ENTRANCE.

Guests should be prepared to walk between transportation areas and Churchill Downs.

Transportation is provided by an independent transportation provider. Departure Depot coordinates the service but does not own or operate the motorcoach and is not responsible for the provider's acts, omissions, mechanical issues or operational decisions.


🚶 WALKING & MOBILITY

The Kentucky Derby involves a significant amount of walking, standing and navigating large crowds.

Guests should be prepared for walking between transportation areas and Churchill Downs, security and admission lines, movement throughout the venue, extended periods of standing, stairs, ramps, potentially uneven surfaces and potentially longer post-Derby walks due to traffic-control procedures.

Guests with mobility concerns should contact Departure Depot before booking.

Wheelchairs, scooters, accessible seating, accessible transportation and other accommodations remain subject to supplier and venue availability and should be requested as early as possible.


🌦️ WEATHER & LIVE EVENT CONDITIONS

The Kentucky Derby is an outdoor sporting event.

Guests should prepare for changing Kentucky weather, including rain, heat, cold, wind and sun.

Race schedules, venue procedures, hospitality offerings, menus, seating configurations, transportation procedures and event operations are controlled by Churchill Downs and applicable suppliers and remain subject to change.

Weather conditions alone do not automatically create a right to a refund or travel credit.


📱 DIGITAL TICKETS

Kentucky Derby tickets may be distributed electronically.

Guests may be required to have a smartphone, accept a digital ticket transfer, access a ticketing account or application and display their ticket electronically for admission.

Departure Depot will provide reasonable assistance before the event, but travelers remain responsible for maintaining access to their tickets.

If you're having trouble with the digital ticket process:

DON'T PANIC.

We'll help.

Kentucky Derby tickets and premium hospitality represent substantial prepaid, supplier-controlled inventory.

Once purchased or financially committed, certain components may become non-refundable, including Derby tickets and hospitality, airfare-related expenses, contracted transportation, supplier deposits and other prepaid or ticketed experiences.

Trip Protection does not guarantee a 100% refund.

All reservations remain subject to applicable Departure Depot cancellation, Trip Protection and Guest Assurance terms.


🤝 INDEPENDENT SUPPLIERS & ITINERARY CHANGES

Departure Depot coordinates services provided by independent resorts, airlines, transportation companies, Churchill Downs, ticket suppliers, restaurants and other travel providers.

Those suppliers control their respective operations.

Departure Depot may reasonably adjust schedules, transportation, meals, Resort Preview times or other components because of supplier requirements, traffic, weather, venue operations, availability or circumstances outside its reasonable control.

If an included experience becomes unavailable, a reasonably comparable experience may be substituted when practical.

If the Kentucky Derby is postponed, rescheduled, relocated, canceled or materially altered, Departure Depot will follow the applicable policies of Churchill Downs and the applicable ticket supplier.

An event or schedule change does not automatically create a right to a cash refund from Departure Depot.
