Saratoga Race Course Giveaway Days
Editor's Note (5/27/21): The New York Racing Association (NYRA) has announced that Saratoga Race Course will re-open to fans at near full capacity for the 2021 summer meet. They have not made an announcement about 2021 giveaway days at the track. We will update the information below when we receive more details.
Giveaway days are some of the most popular of the summer meet, but 2020 was anything but a traditional year at Saratoga Race Course. Without fans in the stands, traditions such as giveaway days were paused.
We've temporarily removed the text from this page that instructed trackgoers on the giveaway item redemption process, which often involved getting a voucher at the gate and exchanging it for a premium giveaway item at designated areas.
Below is a nostalgic look back at 2019's giveaway schedule and premium items as we look forward to giveaway days hopefully returning to the track in 2021.
