Tampa Bay's only horse racing track is an ideal facility that is offering both indoor and outdoor event spaces. Located in Oldsmar, it's about a half an hour ride from both St. Petersburg International Airport and Tampa International Airport, making for a great central location for people on both sides of Tampa Bay.

A benefit to hosting events and meetings at Tampa Bay Downs ​is the venue provides more than enough parking. The facilities are used to hosting numerous guests, as they offer attractions with their races, poker room, and golf practice areas. Both outdoor and indoor events will have plenty of space as Tampa Bay Downs stretches over 45 acres! Their indoor part of the facility spreads across just over 65,000 square feet and can be customized for both small and large events and meetings.

Tampa Bay Downs has been a venue for events such as 2017's Oktoberfest which was celebrated with a carnival. Groups of 50 to 1,000 people can be easily accommodated, so intimate gatherings and massive groups are all welcomed. 

With the venue checked off of the planning list, the focus turns to food. Once again Tampa Bay Downs can help!
