Cheltenham Racecourse
At Cheltenham, The Festival™ supporting WellChild
Tuesday 16 - Friday 19 March 2021
Be a part of the best jump racing in Britain, our four-day Jump racing festival from Tuesday 16 – Friday 19 March 2021, which includes Gold Cup Day.
Four action-packed days of racing feature 14 Grade One races across four seven-race cards as the best horses, trainers and jockeys go head to head at what is often described as ‘Horseracing’s Olympics’.
Racing fans are treated to at least one ‘Championship’ race every day, beginning with the Unibet Champion Hurdle on Tuesday and culminating in the Cheltenham Gold Cup on the Friday.
Each of the 28 races offer something to savour and we look forward to enjoying the action with you, even if this year that has to be from the comfort of your own home.
Next fixture: The Festival™ Supporting wellchild 2021
The next meeting at Cheltenham Racecourse will be the highlight of the Jump Racing season: the four days of The Festival™ supporting Wellchild from Tuesday 16th to Friday 19th March 2021.
Based on current Government restrictions, professional sport is able to continue under stringent health and safety protocols, without spectators present. In horseracing’s case this is vital to support the livelihoods of the many thousands of people who rely on the industry and for the welfare of the thousands of Thoroughbred racehorses who live and train in Britain.
This means that under current restrictions, The Festival™ supporting WellChild will take place as a televised event, but sadly without spectators at the course. We continue to monitor Government guidance and should this change in advance of The Festival™ supporting Wellchild we will act accordingly.
