Emerald Downs

Emerald Downs is a Thoroughbred racetrack in Auburn, Washington, set between Seattle, Tacoma, and Bellevue in the Pacific Northwest. Beyond live racing, the property doubles as an event destination, with eleven distinct spaces that together host groups of up to 2,000 guests throughout the racing season and on non-race days. The venues range from the Emerald Room, the largest banquet space and a fit for weddings, fundraisers, meetings, and tradeshows, to a row of grandstand suites offering sweeping views of the track and Mount Rainier. The Trackside Pavilion pairs indoor and outdoor space with a bar and betting windows for an up-close view of the racing, while the fourth-floor View Room overlooks the saddling paddock and Winner's Circle. In-house catering supports every gathering with an array of menu options.
