About this Event
Festival of Racing 2025- Day 1
Brighton’s 3 Day Festival of Racing
Summer wouldn’t be complete without a day at the races – and a few days out have the charm or the spectacular views of our racecourse. It is the place to be this August, once again, for the three-day Festival of Racing. Day One of the festival features the prestigious Brighton Mile Challenge race, one of our feature races of the calendar!
Sit back, relax and enjoy competitive racing throughout the afternoon, soak up the sun with a refreshing cocktail, enjoy the unplugged sounds of our roaming band, and make unique memories with friends and family.
Combining sporting action, an enjoyable atmosphere, and a scenic seaside backdrop for a quirky day out with family during the school holidays, join us in Brighton for a fun-filled day.
Love a bit of live sport? Brighton races have got you covered. This afternoon of flat racing promises several exciting races to enjoy, whether you prefer to be trackside, or watching on from hospitality. Make more of your September with our horse racing event in East Sussex.
Watch this space for further updates!
Grab your tickets online before the event to enjoy some savings!
Group bookings can save £5 per ticket when booking groups of 10 or more!
And of course, you can also pick up tickets and concessions at the gate when you arrive if you prefer.
