The Champion Suites: Elevating Luxury Hospitality at Belmont Park
Belmont Park is set to introduce a new level of luxury hospitality with the unveiling of The Champion Suites in 2026. These private, year-round spaces will offer guests a premium experience with modern amenities, climate-controlled comfort, and stunning views of the stretch run and finish line. As part of NYRA’s extensive $455 million redevelopment project, The Champion Suites will provide indoor lounge seating, open-air tiered stadium seats, and private balconies overlooking the paddock and backyard, catering to groups of 16 to 50 guests for various occasions.
The announcement of The Champion Suites is a significant step in NYRA’s vision to elevate the hospitality experience at Belmont Park. Guests will have the opportunity to enjoy the excitement of horse racing while indulging in Long Island’s social scene in a sophisticated setting. To secure a suite for race-day celebrations, corporate events, or special gatherings, early reservations are recommended. Detailed layouts and tour information can be found on NewBelmont.com.
The redevelopment of Belmont Park is a transformative project that aims to enhance the historic venue with modern amenities and green spaces for the community. The revitalized grandstand will feature four racing surfaces, including the traditional 1½-mile dirt track, two turf courses, and a one-mile Tapeta surface for winter racing. With the park scheduled to reopen for live racing in September 2026, the Belmont Stakes will return in 2027, coinciding with the hosting of the Breeders’ Cup World Championships for the first time since 2005.
The Champion Suites at Belmont Park will offer a range of capacities to accommodate groups of different sizes, ensuring a memorable experience for race-day gatherings and private events. NYRA’s commitment to providing top-notch hospitality and entertainment is evident in the design and amenities of The Champion Suites, setting a new standard for luxury at the racetrack.
