'''The Red Mile''' is a horse racing track located in [[Lexington, Kentucky]], United States. The track hosts harness racing, a type of horse racing in which the horses must pull two-wheeled carts called '''sulkies''' while racing. It is one of harness racing's most famous tracks and is located in the heart of the Bluegrass region, an area of Kentucky famous for horse breeding and racing. In 2014, The Red Mile announced it was partnering with [[Keeneland]] to build a $30 million historical racing facility, with 1,000 terminals, scheduled to open September 2015. In May 2015, Keeneland also announced that it would move most of its Off-track betting operations to The Red Mile beginning July 15, 2015, investing over $2 million upgrading The Red Mile's grandstand area. In 2023, the [[Railbird Music Festival]] was held in the infield. The bill included 32 acts over two days, headlined by Zach Bryan and Kentucky native Tyler Childers. An estimated 40,000 people attended the festival each day. ==References== * [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Red_Mile The Red Mile. Wikipedia] [[Category:Attractions]]
