Program Ads

Each year Standardbred Canada produces a four-colour souvenir program for the O’Brien Awards. Full-page, four-colour ads are available for purchase in the program at a cost of $600 plus HST.

The program is distributed to everyone attending the O’Brien Black Tie Gala. Traditionally, ads are purchased by racetracks, industry associations, suppliers to congratulate finalists on their outstanding seasons, and owners of the nominees to thank the voters and/or team of people involved in their horse’s success.

The deadline for reserving space in the O’Brien program is Monday, January 18. To book an ad, please contact Kathy Wade Vlaar at [email protected] or 905-858-3060 (Ext. 207), or Andrea Bertucci at [email protected] or 905-858-3060 (Ext. 213).

There is a special O’Brien room rate of $125 available at the Hilton for a limited number of rooms. To make a reservation, you can contact Reservations: 1-855-757-48621-800-422-8238 prior to January 25, and ask for the O’Brien Awards rate.
