Tickets for groups of 16 or more for the Opening Day and the first month of racing at Arlington Park are now available, the track announced Wednesday.

Live racing at what's expected to be the final season at the iconic Arlington Heights track begins April 30 and runs through Sept. 25.

Tickets for the first month for parties of 15 or fewer go on sale April 15.

Officials said tickets will only be sold a month in advance at a time, to ensure the track is following the most current state COVID-19 regulations. Racing dates from June 3-26 will go on sale May 12, races July 2-31 are on sale June 9, races Aug. 1-28 are on sale July 7, and races Sept. 4-25 are on sale Aug. 11.

Track owner Churchill Downs Inc. announced last month it is putting the historic oval up for sale as a "redevelopment opportunity."
