The original Charlottetown Driving Park opened it doors for standardbred harness racing on October 2, 1889.

In August 2005, Prince Edward Island entered a new era in harness racing with the opening of a brand new $25 million facility called the Charlottetown Driving Park Entertainment Centre.

Charlottetown Driving Park Entertainment Centre is home to the prestigious Gold Cup & Saucer race held during Old Home Week in August.
