Queen’s Plate Festival
July 1, 2017 - July 2, 2017
$30
The Queen’s Plate Festival kicks off on July 1 in celebration of Canada’s 150th birthday with live racing, incredible activations and a show-stopping post-race concert by home-grown talent, Our Lady Peace.
On July 2, fashionable crowds will flock to the track to witness the jewel of Canadian horse racing – the $1 million running of the Queen’s Plate. This year’s event will have live music across three stages, best dressed contests for men and women, gourmet summer fare from the city’s best food trucks, and, of course, fantastic horse racing to be wagered on. The 2-day festival will come to a spectacular finish on Sunday evening with a live concert by the Goo Goo Dolls.
Tickets include 2-day access to both concerts as well as an extensive offering of attractions such as the Hats & Horseshoes Party presented by Stella Artois and the main event, the running of the 158th Queen’s Plate horse race. One dollar from every ticket sold is donated to Rethink Breast Cancer.
