Thoroughbred racing  

Thoroughbred racing is where it all began at Oaklawn. They are best known as the home of the Racing Festival of the South and the $1.25 million Arkansas Derby. Over the last decade, the track has played host to some of the biggest names in the sport. In 2015, American Pharoah began his journey to Triple Crown glory at Oaklawn — winning both the Rebel Stakes and Arkansas Derby before making history.  

Enjoy 24/7 action in their smoke-free casino with live blackjack, roulette, over 1,500 slot games, promotions and live entertainment in Pop’s Lounge. Open 24/7, their newly expanded, state-of-the-art casino features live craps, blackjack, hundreds of popular slot machines, and live music. For sports fans, the sportsbook area is the perfect place to watch and wager on games of all kinds. Grab a drink or bite to eat at Silks Bar & Grill, pull up a chair, and let the good times roll.  

The resort is steps away from Hot Springs National Park, the first designated national park in the U.S. Oaklawn is just minutes from two of Arkansas’ most scenic lakes, Lake Hamilton and Lake Ouachita, where visitors can enjoy a wide variety of outdoor recreation.  

The eight-story Forbes® recommended hotel towers over the grounds and offers unparalleled views of the racetrack or surrounding Ouachita Mountains. Luxurious amenities include 100% cotton Frette® bed linens, plush bathrobes, a 65” TV with ChromeCast, an in-room tablet, a quartz vanity with lighted mirrors, rain shower heads and more. Book a trackside room for even more excitement on race days.
