For the 2013 Dogwood Classic, Colonial Downs will be selling reserved Tailgate Spaces on the track along the inner-rail for premium viewing of the afternoon steeplechase racing action. Each Tailgate Space is 15’ wide and 25’ deep and includes admission for all passengers. Friends wishing to join your tailgate party must purchase a Standard Parking pass, which gets them entry into Colonial Downs’ main parking lot and into the races. There will also be General Admission Tailgate available just outside the track on the "Pie Area" which will provide
first-come-first-served, non-reserved, parking
with access to the track.
With limited reserved Tailgate Spaces up for grabs, early booking is highly encouraged. Don’t miss your opportunity to stake out your space early for the biggest party of the spring!
