Making the most of the last bit of summer? Our horse racing in August makes for an action packed day that can be enjoyed by the whole family without breaking the bank. We can’t guarantee the weather, but we can promise a fun day out at Great Yarmouth Racecourse.
The best time of year for being able to be right at the track side and feel the thunder of the horses' hooves as they speed by. Enjoy August horse racing out in the summer breeze, cheering on your favourites to the finish line.
Finding a day out that suits all of the family can be tricky. Though there’s a wide choice of events in August, not all of them cater for all ages, and offer value for money. A day at Great Yarmouth Racecourse provides a fun atmosphere, beautiful views and sports action, plus kids attend for free which makes it a great option for a day out during the Summer holidays in Great Yarmouth.
If you’re planning that summer get together with friends, take advantage of our group discounts (for groups of 10 or more). Book online for the cheapest price, or grab your tickets on the gate, and don’t forget kids attend for free. If you’re looking to take your summer day out to the next level then speak to our team about hospitality packages.
Children 17 and under go free* to the races when accompanied by an adult (*exclusions may apply). Children do not require a ticket in advance and a free ticket will be issued on the day.
Concessions discounts are only available on the day.
All bookings directly through our website and over the phone with our customer service team do not incur a fulfilment fee – the price you see, is the price you pay!
