Colonial Downs has opened up ticketing and experience packages for the Mar. 15 Virginia Derby, the new qualifier race on the Road to the Kentucky Derby. The winning horse will secure a spot in the field for the 151st GI Kentucky Derby, to be held May 3.
In additional to a limited number of general admission tickets, additional seating and options have been created, including special trackside seats and boxes, the Trackside Dining Pavilion and Lounge, the Homestretch Derby Party Tent, and an elevated experience in the Colonial Downs Jockey Club. All ticketed guests will receive a special commemorative keepsake. Tickets are now on sale at ColonialDowns.com.
“We are pulling out all the stops to make this historic Virginia Derby an unforgettable experience for Virginia race fans,” said Frank Hopf, Senior Director of Racing Operations at Colonial Downs. “Whether you're looking for a premium experience in the Jockey Club, a great time in the Trackside party tent, or a general admission ticket to experience the thrill of racing along the rail, we have ticket options to make this a great day at the races. Just like our horses, these tickets are going to go fast so get yours today!”
Colonial Downs will hold a special March meet from Mar. 13-15. The special three-day spring race event is part of a 44-day race season that will continue with live racing July 9.
