List of horse racing venues

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.

This is a list of currently active horse racing venues, both Thoroughbred racing and harness racing, sorted by country. In most English-speaking countries they are called "racecourses". The United States and some parts of Canada use the term "racetracks" and some parts of Canada also use "raceway". In many non-English speaking countries a term cognate with hippodrome (e.g., Estonian: hipodroom, German: Hippodrom, Italian: ippodromo, etc.).

The United Kingdom does not have a country-wide organising body for horseracing. The remit of the British Horseracing Authority does not extend to the island of Ireland; as a result, the two tracks in Northern Ireland are under the jurisdiction of Horse Racing Ireland.
