Witness Triple Crown History; Belmont Stakes Tickets Available

Witness Triple Crown History; Belmont Stakes Tickets Available: The 146th Running of the Belmont Stakes takes place on June 7, 2014. As California Chrome makes his way down the Triple Crown Trail, fans will flock to the Belmont Stakes at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York to watch the colt make history. Miraculously, tickets are still available for the Belmont Stakes!

For only $10.00, fans just like you can be part of this historic event. There hasn’t been a Triple Crown winner since 1978 with Affirmed so it’s time for everyone to cheer on the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner cross the finish line at Belmont Park! As well as grandstand and clubhouse tickets, walk-up admission can be purchased at the track on Belmont Stakes Day itself and there are nearly 10,000 free seats located throughout the facility, including benches in the backyard, grandstand and trackside and tables in the tree-shaded picnic area.

In addition to the third and final jewel of the Triple Crown, the $1.5 million Belmont Stakes, Belmont Park will feature five stakes races worth $8 million including the Grade 1, $1.25 million Metropolitan Handicap, the $1 million Knob Creek Manhattan, the $1 million Ogden Phipps, the $750,000 Longines Just a Game and the $750,000 TVG Acorn.

Entertainment on Belmont Stakes Day includes a performance by a cast member from the Tony Award winning Broadway hit WICKED. Frank Sinatra, Jr. and LL Cool J will also charm the Belmont Stakes crowd.

“We’re extremely pleased with the way people have responded to the tremendous day of racing put together by Martin Panza, our senior vice president of racing operations, as well as the fantastic entertainment package that will bring the guest experience to an entirely new level,” said Chris Kay, president and CEO of The New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA). “Belmont Stakes Day will celebrate everything that is great about our state.”

Tickets are still available for the 2014 Belmont Stakes at ticketmaster.com but will surely go fast.
