About the event
Ringside dining during the Summer Series
The Grand Prix Dining Experience is a Saturday-night ringside dining format at World Equestrian Center – Ocala during the WEC Summer Series. The experience is connected to the Grand Outdoor Arena, with designated tables overlooking top-level equestrian show jumping during the event.
World Equestrian Center – Ocala is the organizer, and the event is associated with Ocala. The format is presented as a premium dining experience rather than a standard arena admission listing, with the meal and arena view central to the program description.
Dinner and enhancement platters
Dinner service includes a three-course chef's dinner served at designated tables. That dining format is paired with views of the show jumping, so the meal and competition are part of the same event experience rather than separate listings.
Pre-orderable enhancement platters are also listed separately. Named options include Cheese & Charcuterie, Antipasto Platter, Shrimp Cocktail, and Smoked Scottish Salmon & Caviar, giving table groups add-on choices beyond the included three-course dinner.
Published table pricing
Weekly individual table pricing is published for Tables of 4, 6, 8, and 10, with gratuity included. The lowest listed weekly individual table option is the Table of 4. The event also publishes full-circuit table pricing, presented separately from the weekly table options.
The event page and ticket path are both associated with World Equestrian Center’s event page for this dining experience.
