This new patio is going to provide spectators with the best views during live races, offering them the opportunity to feel as if they are on the race course itself while the race is happening. Upcoming weeks are projected to bring even more live Thoroughbred races on site of the Woodbine Racetrack since the live 2019 season is in full swing.

It should be taken into account that the new Clubhouse aims to please everyone involved in the process, introducing advanced areas and premium amenities.
