Spice up your Friday with a touch of excitement and some sporting fun! Join us for Friday Afternoon Racing in Great Yarmouth for an all-around enjoyable atmosphere to share with friends and family during the school Summer holidays.
Dip into the world of flat racing with our afternoon racing event featuring several exciting races. If you’re looking for things to do during the week in Great Yarmouth this August, this could be a perfect Summer day out. Just imagine, you’re against the rail at the finishing post, listening to the thunder of hooves as you watch the horses chase to the finish and cheers fill the air as the crowd cheer home their fancies.
Weekday racing has its own beauty – it's ideal for those who have a more flexible schedule beyond the regular 9 to 5, Monday-to-Friday schedule. Skip the weekend hustle and bustle, and get a taste of the racing scene. Whether you're looking for a spontaneous Friday outing with friends and family or want to catch a glimpse of rising stars in the sport, our race meeting in Norfolk has got you covered.
