AHA signature event

AHA Day at the Races

A signature hospitality gathering at Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort—bringing Arkansas industry leaders together for live racing, great food, and meaningful connection.

The experience

Hospitality meets the home stretch

Day at the Races is designed for the people who power Arkansas hospitality. Members, partners, and industry friends gather in a relaxed setting to build relationships and enjoy one of Arkansas’s most distinctive destinations.

Live racing

Experience an Oaklawn race day from a reserved hospitality setting with the energy of the track close at hand.

Industry connections

Meet restaurant, lodging, tourism, recreation, and allied business leaders from across the state.

Food & hospitality

Enjoy a chef-curated meal, refreshments, and the welcoming atmosphere that makes this event an AHA favorite.

An annual AHA tradition

The Arkansas Hospitality Cup Race

Each year, AHA presents the Arkansas Hospitality Cup Race as part of Day at the Races. Members and guests share the excitement of the featured race, then gather in the winner’s circle with the winning horse for a signature AHA moment.

The event continues to grow because it gives hospitality professionals something valuable: time together. Whether you attend with colleagues, host customers, or support the event as a sponsor, the relationships carry well beyond race day.
