The Urban Bourbon Half Marathon is a 13.1-mile experiential destination event that celebrates and promotes 200 years of Louisville and Kentucky distilling history. The race starts and finishes in downtown Louisville and winds through the fall foliage of one of Louisville’s most scenic parks, Cherokee Park. Walkers may participate but must be able to keep an 18:00 minute per mile pace as the course will close at 12 p.m.
We’re pouring out something new this year — introducing the Urban Bourbon 5K, which is a shorter, smoother version of the UBHM.
All UBHM and UB5K participants receive a long-sleeved shirt and unique bourbon-themed medal.
All our registered participants are invited to the award-winner post-race Urban Bourbon Bash, with live music by the Louisville Crashers. UBHM registrants receive bourbon samples, beer, pizza and soup as part of their registration. Our UB5K participants can purchase a discounted wristband for $20 to enjoy the same bourbon samples, beer, pizza and soup.
Since our Urban Bourbon Half Marathon and 5K are meant for those age 21 or older, and includes bourbon and bourbon-themed medals, you must be 21 or older on Oct. 18, 2025, to register. Online registration will close at 7:59 pm on Oct. 17, 2025.
