Meydan Racecourse
Meydan Racecourse is the brand new state of-the-art track that will host the Dubai Horse Racing Festival in 2010 replacing the current track Nad Al Sheba which has played host to the Carnival since its inception. Meydan is more than just a racecourse, it is an entertainment complex with a Marina, apartments, a five star hotel and even an IMAX cinema. It will host its first Super Thursday meeting on March 4th with the Dubai World Cup taking place at Meydan on the 27th March.
The word Meydan comes from the Arabic word meaning ' where, people congregate and race' which sums up this stunning complex perfectly. It is being marketed as a course not just for the UAE but a racecourse for the entire world to enjoy and it looks as though they may have achieved their dream with these facilities.
