New in 2025: Deluxe Cocktail Lounges & Private Suites

New in 2025: Deluxe Cocktail Lounges & Suites

From networking events to birthday parties, Woodbine has the best spots to host the festivities on your 2025 calendar. Our unwavering commitment to curating 5-star experiences means your guests’ comfort is always top priority. This year, take advantage of new, exclusive, and upgraded fan-favourite event spaces at Woodbine Racetrack and the Great Canadian Casino Resort. 

Woodbine has elevated the trackside experience with the recent introduction of Homestretch Bar and Suites. Located outdoors at track-level, Homestretch is the closest you can get to the racing action. 

Homestretch features a casual patio bar and thirteen covered booth-type suites, each with capacity for 8. Suite bookings come with dedicated in-suite hosts and can be enhanced with a variety of food and beverage pairings.  

The expansive racetrack views are taken up a notch in the Turf Lounge, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the finish line. The tiered dining seating, large adaptable event space, and outdoor balcony ensures every guest feels the thrill of racing. Turf Lounge can entertain a group of up to 300 people and features a dedicated kitchen and bar to provide high quality food and beverage service to complement your celebration. 

Tucked away inside the historic Woodbine Club is the newly refreshed Woodbine Club Suite, an exclusive room with its own amenities for private parties of 25 or less. In this space, intimate birthday dinners and executive meetings are made grand with panoramic views of our world-class racetrack. 

Connected to the racetrack, the lively atmosphere of the newly expanded Great Canadian Casino Resort makes for ideal cocktail lounges. Northern Lights Bar and Signature Bar are two new additions to Woodbine’s event bookings roster, both located just off the casino floor.  

Northern Lights Bar has the flexibility to be separated into two spaces, a north bar with capacity for 50, and south bar with capacity for 150. Northern Lights bar is a fitting spot for groups looking to hold a semi-private event that can be personalized with cocktail or dining options and an adjustable floor plan. 

With a capacity of 250, Signature Bar is a larger space that overlooks the gaming floor, keeping guests a part of the gaming action. A flexible floor plan again allows for cocktail or sit down receptions with food stations and/or passed appetizers.
