LEXINGTON, Ky. (Dec. 16, 2013) — The Kentucky Horse Park will be closed Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, Tuesday and Wednesday, Dec. 24-25, and again New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day, Tuesday and Wednesday, Dec. 31–Jan. 1.  The park is normally closed on Mondays and Tuesdays during the winter season, so the park will also be closed as scheduled on the Mondays preceding both holidays (Dec. 23 and 30).

The park will be open Thursday through Sunday, Dec. 26-29, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and will reopen in 2014 on Thursday, Jan. 2, with the regular winter schedule of Wednesday through Sunday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The special holiday festival, Southern Lights, is open every night from now until Dec. 31, 2013 from 5:30 to 10 p.m.  The additional “inside” activities are open only through Monday, Dec. 23. The lighted driving portion will be the only attraction offered from Dec. 24-31. The cost is $20 per car on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 20-21, but will then be $15 every night until Dec. 31.

The Kentucky Horse Park’s Bit & Bridle Restaurant will be closed for the holidays starting Dec. 23, reopening Thursday, Jan. 2. The park’s Farmhouse restaurant is closed for the winter and will reopen in March.
