My wife and I will be in the Saratoga area in mid-August for a short vacation. We would like to go to the track on one of those days. I know it's dark on Tuesdays. My question is do I need advance ticket reservations for grandstand seats? Or, can I just walk up the day of the race and purchase them? The day we were planning on is not having a high-profile race.
tbh as a track lover and horse racing fan I have never even considered grandstand seats. I think you have a better experience picnicking on the lawn. The grandstand is more for society types IMO.
I don't think the grandstand is for "society types" at all! Just regular people. The club house, box seats, and luxury suites are where the more affluent people hang out.
The only day I can think of where you may have a problem is Travers Stakes Day which this year is Saturday 08/24..total mad house but lots of fun Enjoy, going up myself this weekend
