Indulge in the ultimate blend of luxury and equestrian racing with The Grand Stakes Experience, an exclusive partnership between Fairmont Grand Del Mar and the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. This one-of-a-kind package invites you to experience the thrill of the races, complete with behind-the-scenes VIP access in the privacy of a luxury stay.

Your journey begins with a lavish overnight stay at Fairmont Grand Del Mar, a soulful sanctuary where finding yourself comes naturally.

You’ll enjoy a private stroll through the paddock, step onto the finish line, and enter the winner’s circle—where champions are celebrated.

This exclusive experience also includes complimentary valet parking and a dining reservation at the private Turf Club, offering prime views of the track alongside culinary offerings available for purchase in a members-only setting.

The Grand Stakes Overnight Package is available for a limited time this summer and fall. Secure your place at the track—where luxury and fun come together for the ultimate race-day fair.
