Picnics

Right on the rails


Bring your hamper to our designated picnic enclosure for the ultimate day out in the sun.

 

** PLEASE NOTE** WE ALLOW PICNICS ON SPECIFIED RACEDAYS. 

 

Please call the racecourse office for any picnic queries. 


On a typical fixture, no food or drink is permitted to be brought into the main enclosure unless specified otherwide on the event page information. 

 

We welcome racegoers who wish to bring their own food and drink on selected days only. Our picnic area is right on the rails, bringing you closer to the action than anywhere on the course!

 

There is a Tote betting facility as well!

 

Assistance Dogs and well-behaved dogs are permitted on site.
