Summer Festival
The Go Racing In Yorkshire Summer Festival
Sponsored by Sky Bet, takes place at the end of July. Race meetings are held over nine days, starting at Ripon and culminating at Pontefract.
9 Days of incredible racing
Representing everything that’s great about racing in Yorkshire, the week is tied together with a variety of Yorkshire themes, plus a leading trainer and jockey of the week, and a prize for the yard who win the most number of ‘best turned out horse awards’ during the week.
There are food and drink specials, jockey skills competitions and a festival feeling providing a relaxed, chilled out atmosphere. Not to mention the competitive racing providing the heart-thumping sport.
The 2022 festival takes place from Saturday 16th July to Sunday 24th July. Tickets can be purchased from racecourse websites.
