Hipódromo de San Isidro

The 148-hectare (365.7-acre) San Isidro Hippodrome—owned and operated by the Jockey Club- is one of the biggest on the American continent. Its two racetracks, one grass, the other sand, and a surface area of 32,000 square meters (344445.13) accommodate around 100,000 spectators in its six grandstands. The traditional grand events are the thoroughbred Gran Premio (Grand Prize) of the Jockey Club and that of the Carlos Pellegrini, this latter one is held in December when both Argentine and foreign breeders compete. There is a restaurant and parking available on the premises. Call or visit the website for event details.
