Welcome to Greenwich Polo Club
Important Ticketing Update for the 2026 Season:
This year, Greenwich Polo Club is moving from our previous "car pass" system to individual admission tickets.
Each guest must now have their own ticket to enter the event area of the grounds.
This makes entry simpler and gives guests more flexibility, especially for rideshare, Uber, and drop-off arrivals, which no longer require a vehicle pass.
If you purchase a General Admission ticket, that ticket covers your personal entry to the event.
If you reserve a hospitality option such as a cabana, umbrella, grandstand box, or lounge seating, your package includes a set number of admission tickets along with a designated number of parking passes for your group.
If you need additional guests beyond what is included in your reservation, extra General Admission tickets can be purchased separately.
Parking
Parking is now handled separately from admission.
Each vehicle parking on-site must have a paid parking pass.
Parking is limited, and passes help us manage traffic flow while encouraging carpooling and rideshare use.
Guests arriving by Uber, taxi, or drop-off do not need a parking pass.
