Off to the Races at Santa Anita Park

Host thrill-filled meetings at Arcadia's Santa Anita Park, home to horse racing and plenty of venues for events

By Linden M. Bayliss

If you’re looking for a thrill-filled outing at a facility with lots of room to host, Arcadia’s Santa Anita Park horse-racing track has much to offer, including just under 1 million square feet of event space. The outdoor Paddock Gardens space is over 2 acres and includes the Kingsbury Fountain and art deco grandstand as backdrops, and its massive Infield venue with semicovered picnic areas can be rented for as many as 10,000 attendees.

Indoors, planners might take advantage of the 4,350-square-foot Chandelier Room for up to 350 or the elegant, vintage-style Directors’ Room for up to 100, among other spaces. The track’s in-house events team assists with orders, setup, and teardown.
