HORSEPOWER: AGRICULTURE RACEDAY
Back for year two! After huge success in 2025, our Agriculture Raceday returns for 2026.
Although this is a regular Raceday for our racing fans, the day also includes a networking session for the Agricultural Industry within our Hospitality facilities. You can still purchase raceday tickets at our incredible value offering, with the option to attend the Agriculture Raceday Discussion Panel, discussing "Technology in Farming."
This popular event brings together the agricultural community of Lincolnshire for a day of insight, inspiration, and invaluable networking. Featuring an expert panel from across the sector, you'll hear a thought-provoking conversation examining how innovation and emerging technologies are transforming the agricultural industry.
From improving productivity and efficiency to enhancing sustainability and supporting the future of farming, our expert panel will discuss the opportunities and challenges facing the sector, while sharing their own experiences and insights from across the industry.
The discussion will once again be hosted by Sean Dunderdale, BBC Radio Lincolnshire presenter and host of BBC Farmwatch, who will lead the conversation with an outstanding panel of industry experts:
- Belinda Clarke OBE – CEO, Agri-TechE
- George Hoyes – Partner, Ceres Rural
- Neave Anderson – Head of Agri-Tech and innovation, Hartpury University
Whether you're a farmer, landowner, student, agribusiness professional or simply interested in the future of agriculture, this engaging discussion offers a unique opportunity to hear from leading voices at the forefront of innovation before enjoying an afternoon of racing.
Included with your raceday admission, the discussion panel provides the perfect opportunity to network with fellow professionals, gain valuable insights and discover how technology is helping to shape the future of British agriculture.
🚜 Free Entry for Farmers – Farmers arriving in their tractors can enjoy the day completely free of charge as a thank you for their hard work. Simply collect a token from one of our parking marshals on the day and show the staff on the gate. Please use the Main Car Park on Legsby Road.
