Greenwood Stakes Returns to Woodbine Racetrack July 11

Racing Meets Festival Culture

The seventh annual Greenwood Stakes returns to Woodbine Racetrack on Saturday, July 11, 2026. Gates open at 12:00 PM, with first post at 1:10 PM. The event pairs thoroughbred racing with festival programming, including new areas for fashion markets, art installations, and a trackside lounge. The Style Stakes Contest invites attendees to compete for a $1,000 shopping spree by dressing in their most striking trackside attire.

MC4D Headlines International DJ Lineup

MC4D, the genre-blending electronic duo, headlines the Woodbine infield stage. The bill also features WHOOkid, APS, John Easy, Hi MJ, and Big Smoke Bass Brand. The lineup is designed to keep energy high between races, reflecting Greenwood Stakes' push to merge racing tradition with festival-caliber entertainment.

Michelin-Starred Chef Programming

VIP suite menus are curated by Chef Patrick Kriss of the Michelin-starred Alo Group. General admission grounds will host chef-driven pop-ups from Toronto restaurants, serving gourmet cheeseburgers and market-driven salads. Food and beverages are sold separately, but the culinary lineup is positioned as a central feature of the day.

GA Festival Passes are currently priced at $50 plus taxes and fees, following an Early Bird tier at $35. Last Call tickets will be available at $75 as the event approaches.
