Boots & Bridles returns for 2025!

 

Welcome to the toe-tapping extravaganza of Newmarket Racecourses' Country themed Raceday, where the thrill of the turf meets the twang of the guitar!

 

Step into a world where cowboy boots and jockey silks collide, and the sounds of the racetrack harmonize with the rhythms of country tunes. Get ready to saddle up for a day filled with exhilarating races, southern charm, and the unmistakable spirit of Nashville.

 

So dust off your cowboy hat, throw on your best denim, grab your partner, and get ready to two-step your way to a memorable day at Newmarket Racecourses' Country Music Raceday.

 

But that's not all! After racing has finished, we are delighted to announce that Luke Combs UK will be performing! The world's leading tribute to Luke Combs, endorsed by the man himself! 

 

Don't forget, U18s go free when accompanied by an adult 18+

Raceday Style

Raceday Style

At Newmarket Racecourses we believe racing should be enjoyed by anyone and everyone. And one thing is certainly true, the more relaxed and comfortable we feel, the more likely we are to have a great time. So that’s why we’ve created one very simple piece of guidance, to come “dressed to feel your best”.

Our dedication to Sustainability

Our mission is to act for the long-term good of British horseracing but we also have a responsibility to our customers and beyond and are determined to have a positive impact on the world around us. In 2012 we launched the Going Green programme to engage our colleagues and get their help with improving the environmental impact of our business.
