Next up: Festival Stakes Day, Sat 28 Nov
Date to be announced · first Saturday of March
Santa Anita Park, Arcadia, United States
The 'Big 'Cap': classic California racewear, light tailoring.
what to wear
Santa Anita's own wording: 'Although there isn't a specific dress code, patrons are expected to dress appropriately in the Club House Areas' (Chandelier Room included), and 'Please check for dress requirements for different events before attending an event in these areas.' (read 2026-11-13)
Encouraged
No specific dress code; expected to dress appropriately in the Club House areas; check event-specific requirements.
Encouraged
Old-Hollywood Art Deco setting: the Chandelier Room and Turf Club crowd dresses up (dresses, jackets), the apron and infield are casual.
Arcadia in March: about 10-22 C.
Opening Day the day after Christmas is a Los Angeles tradition; the track opened in 1934.
where you are standing
No measurable rules are published for the Chandelier Room or Turf Club. An unofficial blog claims a tailored sport coat is required in private clubhouses; this conflicts with the track's wording and is not confirmed.
No specific dress code; patrons are expected to dress appropriately. Event-specific requirements may apply.
