About Nottingham Racecourse

ABOUT NOTTINGHAM RACECOURSE

 

Nestled in the heart of Nottingham City Centre, Nottingham Racecourse is a vibrant venue hosting 21 thrilling flat race meetings each year, from April to November. Whether it's a weekday, weekend, afternoon, or evening, there's always excitement in the air!


With a rich history dating back to 1773, our 300-acre site at Colwick Park has become a local landmark and a key player in the world of racing. Many future champions have started their careers here, with stars like Golden Horn, Adayar, Desert Crown taking their first steps before racing at prestigious events like The Derby and Glorious Goodwood. In 2024 we saw star two year olds Leovanni, and Aomori City start their careers here at Nottingham and will hopefully go on to become future champions and join our ever growing list of classic winners.


At Nottingham Racecourse, we're passionate about creating unforgettable experiences both on and off the track. Our famous events, including Ladies Day, the Beer Festival, and Family Fun Days, have become key highlights of Nottingham’s social calendar.


We also take pride in our top-notch facilities for Owners and Trainers, offering stunning dual-aspect views from the parade ring all the way to the winning post. In 2023 and 2024, we were proud to receive the “Gold” standard award from the ROA, thanks to our excellent food, service, and facilities.


For a truly memorable experience, don’t miss our raceday hospitality packages, featuring a fantastic trackside restaurant and private boxes that cater to every need.


Looking to host your own event? Nottingham Racecourse is the perfect venue for conferences, meetings, team-building activities, exhibitions, and even weddings. Whatever the occasion, our convenient location, ample free parking, and warm, welcoming environment will ensure your guests are impressed.
