Lexington, KY — Lexington Humane Society will host its 19th annual Tails & Ales fundraising event on Friday, March 13, 2026, from 7:00–10:00 p.m. at the Hilton Lexington Downtown. This highly anticipated event brings together animal lovers for an evening of great drinks, entertainment, and community—all in support of LHS’s lifesaving work.

Guests will enjoy samples of beer, wine, spirits, and non-alcoholic beverages, along with delicious food, music, games, raffles, and special appearances by adorable puppies and beloved LHS ambassadogs.

All ticket levels include a commemorative 2026 tasting glass, while VIP ticket holders receive early entry, an exclusive Tails & Ales 2026 t-shirt, and additional perks. VIP table options are also available for those attending with friends or colleagues.

“Tails & Ales continues to be our most popular fundraiser, and we look forward to welcoming our community back for another unforgettable night in support of the animals,” said Meghan Hawkins, Director of Development for LHS.
Each year, Lexington Humane Society helps more than 4,000 animals find loving homes. Proceeds from Tails & Ales directly support the care, medical treatment, and enrichment of animals while they await adoption.

Founded in 1889 by J. William Sayre, Lexington Humane Society is the largest pet adoption agency in Central Kentucky. LHS advocates for the compassionate treatment of animals, educates the community on responsible, lifelong pet ownership, and promotes adoption as the best option when
searching for a new pet.
