The recently renovated "Angel's Envy Bourbon Club" is the result of a $4 million gift and will open when the University of Louisville Cardinals kick off the 2022 football stadium in Cardinal Stadium.  

In addition to naming the club space the "Angel's Envy Bourbon Club," the agreement also includes marketing and pouring rights at Cardinal Stadium, meaning visitors will have the opportunity to order and enjoy ANGEL'S ENVY Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Port Wine Barrels throughout Cardinal Stadium.

The club, which spans the length of the football field, is a popular gathering place for fans at UofL football games, and the space is also used throughout the year for various events such as weddings, job fairs, conferences, meetings, awards dinners, registrations for car shows, bridal shows and others. The massive club can accommodate up to 1,500 for receptions, 1,000 in a theatre setting and 700 for banquets.

New features in the spacious club include the following.

  • A new steel mezzanine with a double staircase, which connects the club levels, has been added to the center of the room, as an abstract Cardinal sculpture flies above the new structure.
  • New steel and glass handrails line the fourth floor and mezzanine.
  • Huge 14' x 24' LED screens flank each end of the club, with new televisions and audio systems added throughout the space.
  • New extended main bars are positioned at each end of the club, with private speakeasy bars tucked away at each end.
  • A highlighted focus in the center of the club is the massive K-RAX-built custom bourbon barrel storage system, generously gifted to the project by the Koetter Group, Inc.
  • New gathering furniture and soft seating have been added. Custom artwork and branding reflect the history of Cardinals Football.
  • New finishing upgrades such as flooring, paint, wallcoverings and light fixtures have been added throughout the space and at the concession and condiment stations.
  • Elevator lobbies and restrooms on the third and fourth floor have been renovated.

"We're so excited to share Angel's Envy with the many Cardinal fans, alumni and guests who will visit Cardinal Stadium this football season, especially those who will join us in the Angel's Envy Bourbon Club," said Gigi DaDan, ANGEL'S ENVY General Manager. "Through this partnership with the University of Louisville Athletic Association and Cardinal Stadium, as well as our recent $8.2 million expansion to our downtown Louisville Brand Home, Angel's Envy is proud to continue to invest in our hometown and support our local community."

The club, which spans the length of the football field, is a popular gathering place for fans at UofL football games, and the space is also used throughout the year for various events such as weddings, job fairs, conferences, meetings, awards dinners, registrations for car shows, bridal shows and others.
