Sports Seriously
The Kentucky Derby is nearly here, with the 151st edition of one of the great horse races once again set for Churchill Downs in Louisville.
The race, which functions as the first leg of the Triple Crown, is a cultural phenomenon in the “River City.” The Kentucky Derby has been remarkably resilient, with the event being held every single year since 1875, even during world-historic events like the COVID-19 pandemic.
This year’s edition may have an unusual feel, as Louisville is still recovering after a series of powerful storms caused catastrophic flooding earlier in April. However, the Derby itself is still set to proceed, and a full day of racing may well be an important step back to normalcy.
Here is what to know about the upcoming Kentucky Derby, including the date, post time and how to watch information for one of the biggest events in horse racing:
What time is the Kentucky Derby?
The 151st running of the Kentucky Derby is set for Saturday, May 3, capping off a full day of races. The official post time for the main event is 6:57 p.m. ET. Coverage on NBC, USA Network, and Peacock is scheduled to begin at 2:30 p.m. ET.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) – The Federal Emergency Management Agency announced the approval of nearly $23 million in funding to support natural disaster recovery throughout the Southeast.
Kentucky is among several states receiving funds for state-managed recovery programs after Hurricane Helene and other past disasters hit the Southeast, a news release from FEMA said.
According to FEMA, Kentucky, Florida and Tennessee will administer more than $2.1 million for disaster unemployment assistance to help those who may not be able to work as a direct result of a disaster.
Kentucky, alongside Georgia and Tennessee, was also awarded $2.4 million to fund crisis counseling and mental health support.
The funds will help pay for counselors and other services to help people with disaster-related stress and trauma, according to FEMA.
More information about state-managed recovery programs funded by FEMA can be found on the agency’s website.
