Laurel Park reopen for a limited number of patrons on live race days Friday, March 5, and also beginning immediately, licensed owners will be permitted access to the backstretch once again under specific protocols.
As was the case last fall when Laurel Park’s frontside reopened for patrons for about a month, the limit remains 250 people per orders from the state of Maryland and Anne Arundel County.



MTHA’s annual Christmas Party and Toy Drive returns to Laurel Park this year! Join friends and colleagues from across Maryland’s racing community on Monday, December 7, 2026, from 6 to 10 p.m. in the second-floor Sportsbar for an evening of food, live music and holiday cheer.

MTHA has launched a redesigned mdhorsemen.com, featuring a fresh look and a more organized layout that makes it easier for owners, trainers and backstretch workers to find the information they need.

The next Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association Board of Directors meeting has been scheduled for Tuesday, November 24 at 11 a.m.
