Meydan Racecourse, racecourse in Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Meydan Racecourse is a horse racing venue in Dubai featuring multiple track configurations and a distinctive tower structure that serves as the main grandstand. The complex includes dining areas, viewing platforms, and facilities designed to accommodate large crowds during racing events.
Meydan Racecourse opened in 2010 as a modern facility replacing an earlier racing location. It became the home of prestigious racing events, including one of the world's richest horse races.
Getting around the venue is straightforward thanks to clear signage and designated walkways throughout the grounds. On race days, parking areas fill up quickly and public transport options connect directly to the racecourse.
The venue transforms dramatically on major race days when crowds gather in formal attire and the energy peaks throughout the day. Off-season visits reveal a quieter side where the architecture and landscaping can be fully appreciated without the spectacle.
