Mirabello Racecourse, Horse racing venue in Monza Park, Italy.

Mirabello Racecourse was a horse racing venue in Monza Park, set between Villa Mirabello and Villa Mirabellino. It had two race tracks, 1,800 and 2,200 metres long, and two wooden grandstands seating 1,500 each, designed by Paolo Vietti-Violi in a Liberty style. The grandstands and stables were demolished after a 1990 fire.

The racecourse was completed in 1923 from designs by architect Paolo Vietti-Violi and opened officially in 1924. It served the Italian equestrian sport community for decades before racing operations stopped in 1976.

In the 1920s and 1930s the races here, though below Milan's technical level, were followed by the aristocracy and upper bourgeoisie as a fashionable pastime. Between the 1930s and 1940s director Luchino Visconti rode as an amateur jockey on these tracks and also trained and bred horses. The site appears in the 1981 film Asso, during the meeting between Asso (Adriano Celentano) and Enrichetta (Sylva Koscina).

The racecourse stood between Villa Mirabello and Villa Mirabellino, inside Monza Park; the wooden grandstands and stables were demolished after a 1990 fire, so there is no track or seating to walk today. The site is reached on foot through the park paths, and the historic Viale dei Carpini, the axis once linking the two villas, was cut to give the stands visibility and was restored only in recent years.

The racecourse appears in the 1981 film Asso, during the meeting between Asso (Adriano Celentano) and Enrichetta (Sylva Koscina). The viale dei Carpini, the historic axis linking Villa Mirabello and Villa Mirabellino, was spared in the first project but destroyed anyway because it blocked the view from the grandstands.
