Hipodromo de Tandil, Buenos Aries, Argentina

Horse Racing in Argentina Hipodromo de Tandil is a thoroughbred racecourse in the city of Tandil, Buenos Aries Province, Argentina. It originally opened in 1866 which gives the course a claim to being the oldest racecourse in South America. It has a 2400m (1.5 miles) dirt track.

Hipodromo de Tandril ceased racing activities in 1984 and the site was allowed to deteriorate into a state of disrepair. In 2004, the Municipality of Tandil assumed control of the racecourse and began the process of regeneration.

The racecourse also plays host to music concerts at the venue.
