Monmouth Park is a thoroughbred racetrack on Oceanport Avenue in Oceanport. Live racing dates and the simulcast schedule are on separate calendar pages on the track's site, so check those for race days. The site has a history link but does not state a founding date, so none is given here.

Off race days the track still draws visitors. The site shows Caesars Sportsbook open seven days a week on the Clubhouse side, with the Grandstand side closed, and Bluegrass Minigolf listed as open. The site also lists a Breeders' Cup viewing party on October 31, 2026.

Admission and parking details are not stated on the main page. Call 732-222-5100 or check the calendar before heading over, especially if you are bringing children, since wagering areas and event days have their own rules.
