Sponsored blog for York Racecourse
The YorkMix Family Raceday, on Sunday 8 September, is fun for all the family, with seven thoroughbred races, and pony racing, backed by Dragon Studios, to start the day, as well as our Racing Interactive Zone and a range of children’s activities in an under cover area, including bouncy castles, giant inflatables and Joe’s Animal Encounters.
All activities are included in the price and better still, under 18s are absolutely free! (must be accompanied by an adult).
We will also joined by special guest Bluey, who will be appearing at intervals throughout the day!
There’s lots for children to see, do and learn on a day out at York Racecourse, starting with studying form in the racecard, then admiring the thoroughbred horses as they walk the Parade Ring before the race.
Watch, hear and feel as they thunder down the track at speeds of up to 40 miles an hour, before triumphantly crossing the finish line to celebrate with delighted owners, trainers and jockeys.
We offer a combined Grandstand & Paddock and Clocktower Enclosure in a single admission. Racegoers will still be able to bring a traditional picnic to enjoy on the Bank in Clocktower Enclosure, take advantage of our special “picnic hamper cloakroom” before crossing to see the horses close up.
The natural rhythm of a raceday allows plenty of time to get something to eat and drink as well as providing room for quality time with the family.
