List of horse racing venues

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.

This is a list of currently active horse racing venues (Thoroughbred racing and harness racing), sorted by country. In most English-speaking countries they are called "racecourses"; the United States and Anglophone Canada use "racetracks". In many non-English speaking countries the term used is "hippodrome".

Harness racing

Note: Harness racing is often conducted for short-term meets at various fairs and similar events. Many notable harness races are held at such venues, such as the Fox Stake at the Indiana State Fair and the Little Brown Jug at the Delaware County Fairgrounds in Delaware, Ohio. Many of these fair-based races do not conduct legal on-site betting.
