Note: Saratoga Summer Season Passes do not include dates within the Belmont Stakes Racing Festival. They do include general admission to the July 4th Racing Festival.

Unofficial "Reserved" Seating Traditions

Bench seats are traditionally "reserved" by throwing a newspaper or program down. There is also a tradition in Saratoga to throw a tablecloth over a picnic table to "claim" it (these go fast, so this needs to be done in the early morning as soon as gates open).

People are usually respectful of these traditions, and even NYRA asks that patrons honor these informal reservations, but NYRA security will NOT step in to settle any arising disputes.

Wondering what else to bring to the picnic area? Our team has compiled a list of recommended race track essentials!
