JOIN US FOR AN AFTERNOON OF RACING AND ENTERTAINMENT

 

Tickets will be available to purchase on the day, subject to availability.

 

Join us for an afternoon of fantastic racing as we celebrate the ‘sport of kings’ with entertainment for all the family. Racegoers can expect a unique, immersive dinosaur experience for all ages!

 

Due to high demand, the Garden Enclosure for Dinosaur Day has sold out.

 

If you're a Grandstand & Paddock, Premier, or Annual Badge Holder don't worry, there's plenty of entertainment awaiting you in the Grandstand & Paddock enclosure!

 

To ensure fairness and the safety of all our guests, we'll be managing entry into the Garden Enclosure with a queue and a one-in, one-out system when possible. We will be working hard to accommodate as many guests as possible.

 

Kindly note that if you hold an Annual Badge, Grandstand & Paddock, or Premier ticket, picnics must be enjoyed in the car park areas. 

 

Thank you for your understanding.
