Gloucester Park, Harness racing venue in East Perth, Australia
The racing track at Gloucester Park spans along the Swan River banks, featuring a lit oval course adjacent to the WACA Ground.
Initially named Brennan Park in 1929, the venue received its current name in 1935 to honor Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester.
Every Friday night, local racing enthusiasts gather at Gloucester Park to watch Western Australia's premier horses compete for substantial prize money.
The facility includes nine function rooms available for private events, plus three restaurants that operate during race nights.
Between 1977 and 1979, Gloucester Park hosted World Series Cricket matches using artificial pitches instead of traditional grass surfaces.
