SUMMARY:Del Mar Racing Season 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Del Mar Thoroughbred Club opens its 2026 summer racing season in mid-July at Del Mar Race Track\, the legendary seaside course where the turf meets the surf. Del Mar has been running thoroughbred racing since 1937 — co-founded by Bing Crosby — and the combination of oceanfront location\, the specific culture of California horse racing\, and the compressed five-week season makes Del Mar one of the most atmospheric racing experiences anywhere.\n\nDel Mar's track sits adjacent to the Pacific Ocean with the breakers visible from the grandstand on clear days. The track's turf course is one of the premier turf racing surfaces in the United States\, and the Del Mar summer meet traditionally draws strong fields from California-based stables as well as shippers targeting the Pacific Classic — one of the richest turf stakes races on the West Coast calendar.\n\nThe grandstand culture at Del Mar spans the full range of California racing fandom — serious handicappers in the clubhouse\, families in the infield with picnic blankets\, the Friday racing-and-fashion crowd\, and the Saturday headliner concert events that bring an entirely different audience to the same grounds after the racing card. Bettor-friendly simulcast wagering on races from across the country runs alongside the live card.\n\nDel Mar is at 2260 Jimmy Durante Blvd\, accessible from the I-5 at Via de la Valle. The Coaster commuter rail stops adjacent to the track. Parking on-site. General admission is inexpensive\; clubhouse and turf club upgrades are available. Season runs mid-July through Labor Day.
