Getting Into The Purple Tie Stakes

Attendees who purchased tickets before 5/24 will be emailed vouchers for free entree into Belmont in the days leading up to the event.

Attendees who purchased after 5/24 will be required to pay the $5 Belmont entrance fee upon arrival (kids still get in free).

We will have all attendees on file for check-in when you arrive at The Top of the Stretch where the event is held.

Parking & entry

If you’re driving to the event, park in the Ruby lot and walk through the Paddock and enter Belmont at the LIRR Entrance. (note that the below map says, “Orange” lot because Belmont has not updated the map on its website yet).

Mass transit

You can also take the LIRR to the Belmont-UBS station and enter at the LIRR Entrance.

Once inside

Once inside, you can find The Purple Tie Stakes at the, "Top of The Stretch" located on the western side of the park in front of the grandstands. We are in pens 1-4 (look for people in purple!). You can either show your Belmont entry voucher (for early purchasers) or provide the name your ticket was purchased under to the event runners upon arrival.
