How will rain affect this event?
(from Newport Polo) While it has been a rare occurrence in 32 seasons, (there will be )rain contingency information (provided) to participants. The chance of rain impacting a polo event is something that Newport Polo has a detailed plan for, to maintain consistent expectations.
If a Benefit Match cannot be played due to weather/field conditions, it will not be rescheduled. Benefit organizers can either carry on, having a party for a while, or cancel their event. All ticket sales are final, no refund/no exchange. The beneficiary’s fundraising purpose is fulfilled; the tickets become void. That is one of the advantages of advanced ticket sales.
If the Newport International Polo Series match on Saturday, July 13th cannot be played due to weather/field conditions, it is rescheduled to the Rain Date, Sunday, July 14th at 5PM. This occurrence would impact the All Charity Day on July 14. All July 13th existing Polo Series reservations will be transferred to the rain date. The numbered tailgate parking spaces will no longer be available for All Charity Day participants, due to the fulfillment of existing reservations. All Charity Day participants will be reassigned to the West Lawn Seating area including the Grandstand bleachers. Newport Polo can pre-designate new locations for each organization to hold its event as scheduled.
We are not likely to have advanced notice of a Saturday match postponement or cancellation due to weather-related field conditions sooner than the start of the match, 5pm game time on Saturday. Organizers and guests can check the up-to-the-minute status of the Sunday match by calling the 24-hour info hotline, (401) 846-0200 x2.
