Sunland Park Racetrack & Casino is a gaming and entertainment complex in Sunland Park, New Mexico, that opened as a racetrack in 1959. Over the following decades, when interest in horse racing declined nationally, New Mexico authorized racetracks to add casino gaming — transforming the facility into the combined destination it is today. Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse racing remain at the heart of what Sunland Park offers, anchored by the annual Sunland Derby and supplemented by year-round simulcast wagering from tracks across the country. The casino floor features slots, video poker, and electronic table games, while The Grill serves guests adjacent to the gaming floor seven days a week. Live music on Friday and Saturday evenings and Mariachi performances on Sundays round out the weekly programming. Sunland Park directs a portion of its revenues toward New Mexico state taxes, horsemen's purses, problem gambling resources, and regional nonprofits including NMSU, the Ronald McDonald House, Children's Miracle Network, and the Alzheimer's Association.
