Located at 101 N. Schmeer Road in Portland, Oregon, Portland Meadows is the only major racetrack in the State.

Parking is free and the track is usually open from about 9:00 am. There are ATM machines in the Simulcast Area, the Paddock Bar and the Club House for added patron convenience. You are not permitted to take photos or videos of the races whilst they are still in progress, but may use your equipment while the horses are heading towards the paddock or in the saddling arena, during parades, warm ups and after the race. For security reasons, patrons at Portland Meadows are not allowed to use electronic equipment for wagering purposes while on the facility.

Visitors may not bring food or beverages onto the property but there are a number of restaurants and bars to provide you with great food.
