About 250Lex

In 2025, we will celebrate Lexington, Kentucky’s 250th anniversary. Named after the Revolutionary War battle, the city was founded in 1775 — one year before the Declaration of Independence was signed. And it continues to thrive today.

Launched in September of 2023, a volunteer commission was created and charged by Mayor Linda Gorton to plan this milestone year. The 250LEX Commission is planning an entire year’s worth of interesting, inclusive and memorable events. While making sure to acknowledge the past, these efforts will showcase our present as well as look boldly into the future of Lexington!
