Newton Abbot Racecourse |
||||||||||
|
Newton Abbot Racecourse is the leading summer racecourse in the UK. It is therefore a showcase for the industry and aims to provide quality competitive National Hunt racing to a wide audience drawn from both the general public and from the corporate sector.
It also aims to provide an efficient and attractive setting for non-racing activities that generate income and activities and 
acts as a means of promoting the site and the industry as an increasingly attractive target for sponsors. In short Newton Abbot aims to be the venue of choice for all our customers, racing and non-racing alike.
Other activities which take place at the racecourse include: Car Boot sales, Antiques Fairs and Greyhound racing. Site hire for conferencing and seminars is also available.
