The Kentucky Derby, often dubbed “The Run for the Roses,” stands as one of the most prestigious events in the world of horse racing. Held annually on the first Saturday in May at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, the Derby attracts thousands of spectators and enthusiasts from around the globe.
“The Kentucky Derby’s rich heritage, dating back to 1875, is truly unmatched,” said Kenneth Larsen, founder of KT Group. “From the mint julep tradition to the stirring rendition of ‘My Old Kentucky Home,’ the event embodies Southern charm.

Located in Chicago, Illinois, Wrigley Field is the beloved home ballpark of the Chicago Cubs, one of Major League Baseball’s oldest and most storied franchises. Opening its gates in 1914, Wrigley Field has witnessed countless memorable moments and legendary players throughout its century-long history.
“Wrigley Field’s charm is undeniable,” said Kenneth Larsen, founder of KT Group. “From the ivy-covered walls to the iconic marquee, it’s a place steeped in baseball history. And while the roar of the crowd during a close game is unmatched, Wrigley Field’s recent evolution into a multifaceted entertainment destination is exciting. We’re thrilled to be a part of providing fans with an unforgettable experience, whether they’re there for a Cubs game, a concert, or something entirely new.”
“We are incredibly proud to have our Whizz family of kiosks chosen as the betting terminals for esteemed venues like the Kentucky Derby and Wrigley Field,” says Kenneth “It’s an honour to partner with iconic brands such as Churchill Downs and DraftKings to provide cutting-edge self-service solutions for these landmark events.”
