Lights will be installed for night racing. The Grandstand will be three levels with a permanent seating capacity of 4,000. There will be a simulcast pavilion on the ground floor for wagering on horse racing within the state and across the country. The second level will have 14 VIP suites. The third level will feature box seating, an exclusive Jockey Club and enclosed dinging.
Officials hope to have the simulcast pavilion open by the end of the year.
The Yellow Rose Amphitheater, which will seat 30,000 will be situated in the racetrack's infield. There will be 10,000 fixed reserved seats, room for more than 20,000 on the lawn and a large festivals area for vendors and sponsors. There are more than five million people within 300 miles of Amarillo that rarely have the opportunity to se stadium-quality acts. With the size of our venue and a fresh market, we hope to attract the quality acts that, traditionally, have passed by the area. Additional shows will be booked as the venue matures.
