For two nights under the stars each August, Picnic with the Pops features our own Lexington Philharmonic with a special guest artist at Keeneland's Meadow at Keene Barn.
This year's guest artist, Michael Cavanaugh, was named Corporate Entertainer of the Year for 2013 by Reuters. For Picnic with the Pops, Cavanaugh will perform The Songs of Elton John and More!
More from the Picnic website: 'The dynamic set list for this show will feature creative reinterpretations of classic Elton John hits, interspersed with additional songs by rock & roll legends Wings, Styx, The Eagles and more."
This year's Picnic will be held on Friday, August 15th and Saturday, August 16th. Find out all of the details about Picnic with the Pops here. It should be a great show.
Whether homemade or catered, great food has always put the 'picnic' in Picnic with the Pops. In 2014 - for the first time - two gourmet food trucks (Fork in the Road and Minton's at 760) will also serve food available for purchase during the event. Find out more about food options here.
