Every third Saturday in May, the heart of Baltimore beats a little faster. The sound of hooves on the dirt track at Pimlico, the colorful chaos of fashion and fascinators, the singing of “Maryland, My Maryland,” and the thrill of the race—it’s all part of the magic that is the Preakness Stakes. This year marks a monumental milestone: the 150th Running of the Preakness, and Baltimore is ready to celebrate in true Maryland style.
The Preakness isn’t just a horse race—it’s a tradition that runs deep in the veins of our city. Since 1873, Baltimoreans have gathered to watch champions made and memories born. From Black-Eyed Susans to crab cakes, it’s a day of excitement, elegance, and, of course, incredible food.
