About Lexington, Kentucky

Lexington is a consolidated city coterminous with Fayette County, Kentucky, United States, of which it is also the county seat. Lexington was named in June 1775, in what was then considered Fincastle County, Virginia, 17 years before Kentucky became a state. The Festival of the Bluegrass, Kentucky's oldest bluegrass music festival, is in early June; it includes three stages for music and a "bluegrass music camp" for school children. (Wikipedia)
