Newbury Racecourse in Berkshire offers some of the best horse racing both on the flat and over jumps. The first race meeting was held here on 26th September 1905.
It is home to the Hennessy Gold Cup, the Group 1 Lockinge Weekend, Ladies Day in August and a summer season of top-class racing, including evening fixtures, family fun days and three Party in the Paddock events with a live concert after racing. In 2010 we have a Party in the Paddock line up which includes Simply Red in July and Westlife in August.
Newbury Racecourse is set amid 360 acres of the most picturesque countryside. The racecourse and its extensive buildings, including the state-of-the-art Lord Foster designed grandstand and the newly refurbished Hampshire stand, incorporating the panoramic Hennessy restaurant, boasts some of the best facilities in Great Britain. Superbly located in the heart of the M4 corridor in Berkshire, Newbury Racecourse is a flexible Conference Venue with excellent Event Facilities accommodating events ranging from 10 to 10,000 guests.
