World Class Racing

Day 1 features five Group Races including the world class Group 1 Royal Bahrain Irish Champion Stakes. Come and see the best Irish and international flat horses in action. 

Garden Party

Last years' theme was the grand Garden Party! The venue allowed you to immerse yourself in a vibrant atmosphere with exclusive bars, new seating areas, and multiple cocktail stations. Attendees enjoyed DJs spinning tunes all day, creating the perfect backdrop for socialising and fun. And of course, there was thrilling races that make this event truly unforgettable. Join us for a day of excitement and entertainment soon!
