The Belmont Stakes Tickets

I attended stake day when Dornoch excelled and it was a fantastic time at the Saratoga racetrack. Both the fans vendors, and the participants were at the top of their game, providing a fantastic service and a fantastic time to all. The environment is so much more friendly than having it at Elmont. Insiders are indicating not only will 2025 but 2026 will also be held at Saratoga. We’ve all known that Saratoga has supported the NYRA tracks that failed to perform annually. Go Saratoga and love Saratoga.

The weather was perfect, the event was a great deal of fun. We arrived later in the day, so getting into the track and our parking spot was no problem. The people in the grandstand area were all respectful of each others' picnic area and were excited to have the Belmont in Saratoga. Unfortunately, leaving the event was a disaster. The one parking attendant standing near Siro's stated that all the other parking attendants left. There was no one directing the traffic leaving the track and it was total chaos. A terrible last impression.

The Belmonte day at Saratoga track was too crowded, the bathroom line was 20 minutes and the amount of alcohol vendors was ridiculous. That day was not Saratoga. No family gathering rules that were foolish like no carts, no umbrella and no alcohol could be allowed in. It was something that was not fun but annoying and I will never go again. I’ve been going to Saratoga since 1968 and that day was a poor attempt at offering an enjoyable day at the races. Never again!

It took over one hour to enter the he venue. Standing in line, awaiting to be scanned and patted down. Most venues of this magnitude have very defined and easy practices to enter the venue. Not NYRA. With 50k of customers you would think the bathroom access would be figured out, spent more time in a line waiting to go. Rather than placing bets and watching races. Very disappointing.

The Belmont was awesome - give this event 6 stars out of 5! Only gave three starts because TicketMaster stinks - only 4,883 characters left to comment - not enough to tell you how much they stink!

I went into this not really knowing if I would enjoy this with a general admissions ticket. But I brought my two sons and we all had a great time. Next year we will bring our own food though. Food is outrageously expensive.

We go to Saratoga every year for the races so were familiar with the track. We purchased reserved seats in advance which really made the day perfect. Already planning for 2025 Belmont!

The Belmont was oversold and bathroom and bar lines were crazy. Saratoga should limit the crowd next year and increase the ticket price.

Great experience, concession pricing was outrageous( like everywhere). Well organized.

We arrived early at 9:45 am and there was not much of a wait and security moved people through the lines pretty quickly. Around noon the crowd grew. There was a nice assortment of food trucks and beverage stand. There was insufficient bathroom facilities with lines lasting 15-30 minutes, the track needs to bring in portable restrooms as I spend an hour just in bathroom lines. Other issue was NYS Governor's motorcade blocked must of the rear exit which squeezed a 10,000-20,000 plus crowd from a normal 60 feet wide exit to 10 feet which causes a danger to people leaving due to crush of crowd,
