An evening of glitz and glamour is in stall this weekend when Warwick Racecourse hosts its hugely popular twilight fixture.

The Think Pink Warwick Ladies Night is the second instalment of the Warwick May Racing Carnival and is set to attract another bumper crowd on Saturday, May 13.  

Warwick’s sole twilight fixture of the season will be raising funds for the charity Marie Curie and will see the gates open at 3.30pm, ahead of the first race at 5.30pm, with the final race starting at 8.30pm. 

Entertainment will include live music throughout the day which will also continue after the racing, a cocktail bar and a best dressed competition with prizes including spa days for two at the Ardencote Manor Hotel, glamping for four at Warwick Castle and a brand new Audi TT to drive around for a weekend.

Exclusive tables in the Glitz and Glamour Paddock Pavilion, situated opposite the parade ring, are available and will feature blackjack and roulette tables before the racing begins.

Andre Klein, General Manager at Warwick Racecourse, said: “We’re really excited about the Think Pink Warwick Ladies Night – tickets have been selling really well, and it’s set to be a fantastic evening.

“Ladies and gents are being encouraged to dress to impress and give our judges a tough job picking the best dressed competition that we’ve lined up.

“This is our penultimate fixture of the season, and our only evening raceday of the campaign, and as such is one of our most popular events in the calendar.

“Hospitality packages have been extremely popular, and there’s still a chance to join us in the Glitz and Glamour Paddock Pavilion.

“We are expecting a big crowd and we encourage people to book tickets in advance.”

The Glitz and Glamour package includes a private table, corporate admission, complimentary parking, a choice of Pimms or Prosecco on arrival, a sit down two-course meal, a dessert buffet, tea and coffee throughout the day, a tipping session to help pick your winners and a tote betting facility.

The final fixture of the second Warwick May Racing Carnival, and also the last raceday of the season is the Proudly Warwick Meeting on Thursday, May 25.
