What Makes Racing A Proper Day Out?  

Getting dressed up, having fun with friends, great food, a brilliant atmosphere and a serious adrenaline rush -a day at the races offers all of this and more!

With over 360 race meetings a year, you are spoiled for choice.  Every racecourse is different, offering an experience that is unique to Ireland. And the next big day out is just around the corner! For many, nothing beats a day at the Curragh, Leopardstown or Punchestown, the atmosphere of the seven-day Galway Festival or the end-of-summer extravaganza at Listowel. For others, in search of a more relaxing experience, it could be an afternoon or evening at beautiful Gowran Park or Killarney. 

Check out an upcoming race meeting near you and experience a proper day out!
