13th Annual Guardsmen Kentucky Derby Party

The best Kentucky Derby Party west of the Mississippi is back!

Join The Guardsmen for the 151st renewal of The Greatest Two Minutes in Sports. We are returning to The General's Residence at Fort Mason this year, a luxurious historic mansion with sweeping San Francisco Bay views. Plan for an epic afternoon filled with southern charm, stylish outfits, and the thrill of the race - all in support of The Guardsmen's mission to support at-risk Bay Area youth.

Your all-inclusive ticket includes:

• A first-class viewing of the race
• Hosted bars with mint juleps, bourbon, and signature cocktails
• Bites and hors d'ourvres
• Music and dancing
• Outdooor seating & lawn games
• Raffle prizes and more!

Dress to Impress:

Break out your Derby attire - seersucker, bow ties, sun dresses, fancy hats, and whatever else will make you stand out among some of the Bay Area's classiest residents.

The competition is fierce, but one stylish male and female will be crowned Best Dressed and take home exclusive prizes from our sponsors.
