Looking for fun events during Thanksgiving weekend in the Orange County – San Diego County area? We drove down to sunny Del Mar today and enjoyed a delicious and relaxing champagne brunch with friends at the exclusive Turf Club. The Bing Crosby Season at Del Mar Race Track runs from October 29 – November 29. If you’ve never experienced thoroughbred horse racing, viewing the races from your table while sipping champagne and noshing will no doubt be memorable for you and visiting family and friends.
The horses run Thursday – Sunday with post time for the first race at 12:30 p.m. on most days. On Thanksgiving Day first post is shifted to 11 a.m. There are many options available for Reserved Seating at Del Mar ranging from $4 to $25 (does not include admission which is $6).
Bing + Bubbles + Brunch is served every Sunday in November, so there is only one more date left! You will experience a prepared menu by Chef Brian Malarkey, one of San Diego’s most celebrated chefs, in the exclusive Turf Club at Del Mar. Bring your BFF’s for a deliciously decadent day at the races featuring creative cuisine, a reserved Turf Club table and bottomless mimosas.
