Monday, 11th December 2017 – Racing at Wincanton on Boxing Day (Tuesday, December 26th) is the highlight of Somerset’s social and sporting calendar, and with a surge in advance booking, Wincanton Racecourse is the place to be over Christmas.
Hospitality is now sold-out in all three restaurants and corporate boxes.
However, the racecourse does house numerous bars and catering outlets from the See More Business to the Badger Bar that offers a variety of hot and cold convenience snacks.
Wincanton Racecourse also anticipates their Boxing Day raceday being a sold-out fixture, with advance sales out performing former years.
It is advisable to purchase tickets in advance with prices starting from £10 in the Course Enclosure with complimentary entry for children aged 17-years and under when accompanied by an adult* – seeing a glorious outing for a family-of-four valued at £20. Grandstand entry is priced at £18 per person with the Premier Enclosure retailing at £25. (*Complimentary admission tickets are required for children.)
Huw Williams, General Manager of Wincanton Racecourse, said: “The team is very much looking forward to our Boxing Day meeting.
“We continue to deliver value for money and look forward to welcoming the very many racegoers.”
