Rillito Park Race Track Review Jump to comments

UpdateThe 2019 Winter Meet will have 6 weekends of live racing, February 9 through March 17, 2019. This year includes 12 live race days. Dates are subject to approval by Arizona Board of Racing and may change.

Rillito Park Race Track is located at 4502 North First Avenue, in TucsonArizona. The five-eighths mile horse track was added to include  quarter horse racing in 1953 and now both types of races occur. Racing takes place in the cool months of late January or early February until the last post in March or April.

The track is owned by  Pima County. Conflicts between horse racing and the county have been going on for some time. In 2009 there was a plan to demolish the facility but a downturn in the economy shelved the plans and the horse racing facility was granted a 5-year extension which expired at the close of the 2014 season.

Keep an eye on the news section here for any updates and we'll let you know as soon as we hear anything. If you have confirmed information or corrections for our review, please leave a comment in the box below and we will attend to corrections or additions right away.
