      Hi Thabile
      I am sure you will have a great time and it will probably be your first of many!
      You can buy entry tickets to Greyville racecourse at the racetrack itself including on race day itself. If you get there later in the afternoon you may have to queue for a while.
      To purchase hospitality tickets (BOOMTOWN / PEGASUS LOUNGE / ETC ) use the SHOP link at the top and you can purchase tickets using your credit or debit card. You can also call the hospitality reservations office on 031 572 4042 and they will help you with your hospitality tickets.
