Woodbine Racetrack will allow spectators–at 25% capacity in the grandstand and on the track apron–beginning on Canada Day, July 1. “We are thrilled to be able to open our doors on Canada Day and welcome back our owners and some spectators to the track who have been dearly missed,” said Jim Lawson, CEO, Woodbine Entertainment. “We have been operating live racing for a couple of weeks now, but it's just not the same with empty stands. We are thankful to the government for entrusting us to safely welcome back a limited number of spectators.” Reservations will be required to attend the races. Click here for more information.
