About CDE

Churchill Downs Entertainment (“CDE”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Churchill Downs Incorporated (“CDI”) located in Louisville, Ky., that was formed to conceive, develop, produce and manage large-scale entertainment events at CDI and non-CDI properties. The immediate success of headline concerts by the Rolling Stones (2006) and The Police (2007) at the historic home of the Kentucky Derby led to the creation of CDE, which is also based in Louisville.
