Harness racing’s roots in PEI soil run deep. It is believed that Summerside Raceway (now RED SHORES at Summerside Raceway) is the oldest race track in Canada, dating back to July 1st, 1886.

The action in Charlottetown wasn’t far behind, with the Charlottetown Driving Park (CDP) opening its doors on October 2nd, 1889. RED SHORES is truly proud of the longstanding tradition of harness racing in Prince Edward Island and strives to produce a unique and entertaining experience to its spectators.
