From approximately 6-7:30pm, your favorite Monmouth Park jockeys will take over behind the bar serving up your favorite drinks. During that time, all tips and donations will go to the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund. The party continues all night with live music, raffles and silent auction, food, photo opps and more.

No tickets or reservations are needed. Come see your favorite jockeys like you’ve never seen them before – behind the bar!

In partnership with Tito’s Vodka.
