The Unbridled Charitable Foundation, Inc. presents the 6th annual Unbridled Eve Derby Gala on Friday, May 5, 2017 at the Galt House Hotel Grand Ballroom in Louisville. Proceeds from the Unbridled Eve Derby Gala, an Official Event of the Kentucky Derby, benefit numerous charitable causes through the Unbridled Charitable Foundation, a 501 (c)3 charitable organization.

The lavish event, with previous headliner performances from such musical giants as Luke Bryan, Robin Thicke, Wynonna Judd, and REM’s Mike Mills, has emerged as the premier pre-Derby party. More than 1,000 guests, including celebrities and VIPs, will experience the glamorous evening featuring dazzling specialty bars generously provided by Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits serving fine wines, champagnes, and custom cocktails specially created for Unbridled by top mixologists.

The star-studded celebration continues with silent auction bidding on more than 100 unique and coveted items and once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Guests will also be treated to a plated gourmet meal served in the Grand Ballroom which is exquisitely decorated by Millennium Events. Always highly anticipated, the night is topped off with multi-genre musical experiences featuring many stars of yesterday and today. This year’s acts will be announced shortly.
