Host Clients During the NAILE Livestock Expo

The North American International Livestock Expo is the world's largest all-breed, purebred livestock show — nearly two weeks at the Kentucky Exposition Center every November. With breeders, buyers, and ag partners in town for days, you've got plenty of chances to host them right. Reserve our private upstairs lounge, fifteen minutes across the river, for a night of cigars and real conversation.

North American International Livestock Expo

NAILE brings tens of thousands of exhibitors and hundreds of thousands of visitors to Louisville across its run — cattle, swine, sheep, goats, horses, and the breeders, buyers, and agribusinesses behind them. It's the premier event of the year for the livestock world, and everyone who matters to your business is in one place for two solid weeks.

The After-Show Move for Ag & Livestock Exhibitors

The barns and the show ring are where the business gets done — but the relationships get built after hours, when you can finally sit down with the breeders and partners you've worked with all year. A hotel bar is loud and full of the same crowd. We're a different kind of room: a premium cigar lounge fifteen minutes across the river in New Albany, Indiana, with a door you can close behind your group.

Whether it's a breeder dinner's natural second act, a thank-you for your buyers, or just a quiet hour for the crew that's been mucking and showing for days, the upstairs lounge turns a long expo into a night worth remembering — and with NAILE running two weeks, there's room to pick the right one.

Your Own Private Floor

Book the upstairs and the entire second floor is yours for the night — fully private, doors closed, no walk-in traffic. That includes:

We keep the focus on cigars and good company. Plenty of groups bring their own food to enjoy alongside their cigars — just ask us how it works.
