Wimbledon Stadium
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wimbledon Greyhound Stadium is a dog racing track located in Earlsfield in southwest London, England. It also hosts speedway, stock car and other racing events.
It is a greyhound racing stadium for the purposes of entertainment, usually including gambling on the outcome of a race. It is arguably the most famous greyhound racing stadium in the UK along with Walthamstow.
The facilities include a glass fronted grandstand seating 8,000, and several bars and catering facilities including a waiter-service restaurant. The stadium is surrounded by a large open-air car park. The local footbal team AFC Wimbledon has mooted a move to the stadium, however any pitch would be of inadequate size and impinge upon the existing track.
Wimbledon Greyhound Stadium is owned by the Greyhound Racing Association.
