Comparing Breeders' Cup Official Ticket Packages & General Admission Tickets
Interested in attending the World Championships of thoroughbred racing?
Before hitting “complete purchase”, make sure you know all the ticket options that are available to you for this year’s event. While general admission tickets are now available to the public, you can also attend the Breeders’ Cup with an Official Ticket Package from Breeders’ Cup Experiences.
Below, we break down the difference between a Breeders' Cup Experiences Official Ticket Package and a general admission ticket so that you can make an easy, informed decision.
Breeders’ Cup Experiences Official Ticket Package
Multiple Seating Options
Every Official Ticket Package from Breeders’ Cup Experiences starts with a 2-day race ticket for Friday and Saturday at the Breeders’ Cup.
Each day, your ticket provides access to the race course and reserved seating at a specified location in coordination with the selected ticket package.
Hospitality Access
Hospitality access elevates your experience beyond what you’d receive with a general admission ticket.
Breeders’ Cup Experiences has access to luxury spaces on the grounds that each offers a unique atmosphere.
Each space is open during both race days and features a premium open bar, snack, and buffet options throughout the day, as well as other special inclusions.
Insider Experiences
Official Ticket Packages take you closer to the action on race day with exclusive insider experiences that aren’t included with general admission offerings.
Insider experiences can include a behind-the-scenes tour of the paddock, a framed photo of the event, an invitation to the welcome party, a paddock enclosure pass, or a Q&A with a celebrity jockey.
Travel and Lodging Accommodations
If you’re traveling to the Breeders’ Cup, this is one of the biggest appeals of attending with an Official Ticket Package.
All packages from Breeders’ Cup Experiences come with the option to add multi-night hotel accommodation to your order. If you add a hotel to your package, you will also receive round-trip transportation on Friday and Saturday.
General Admission Ticket
Access to the track
If your goal is to just get through the gates, there’s no better option than a general admission ticket.
General admission tickets start at around $100 per person.
Grandstand Access
The most basic general admission ticket on breederscup.com offers access to the infield on either Friday or Saturday.
Clubhouse Access
For those looking for a better viewing experience without purchasing an Official Ticket Package, a Clubhouse general admission ticket is available. This ticket offers single-day seating in the main clubhouse. A 2-day Clubhouse general admission ticket package is also available for an upcharge.
