Tickets cost $125 if you drive yourself, or $150, which includes a round-trip bus ride from Louisville; seats are limited. There will be valet parking at the distillery, 3350 Burks Spring Road, Loretto.
The dinner is progressive, served at various places around the Maker’s Mark campus. Eight staggered seatings every 20 minutes begin at 5:40 p.m. until 8 p.m. Bus riders will be seated during the 7:40 and 8 p.m. cycles.
