Newcastle Racecourse has confirmed 70 fixtures for 2026 after the BHA revealed the 2026 fixture list.
These fixtures will comprise of a mixture of both All-Weather and National Hunt fixtures, with highlights including All-Weather Finals Day, as well as the Northumberland Plate and Fighting Fifth fixtures.
The All-Weather Championship Finals were moved from Lingfield Park to Newcastle in 2022. This has subsequently resulted in the Good Friday meeting turning into one of the most well attended fixtures of the year at Gosforth Park.
The three-day Northumberland Plate meeting is another popular meeting in the North-East and it would be no surprise to see Spirit Mixer attempt to retain his crown in the 2m handicap contest next year.
Undoubtedly, the highlight of the Winter is Fighting Fifth day which takes place shortly before Christmas. The race has been won by legends of the jumps racing game such as Constitution Hill, My Tent Of Yours and Harchibald.
Tickets are on sale now for next year’s Northumberland Plate and Ladies Day starting at £29.50.
Paul Elliott, Executive Director at Newcastle Racecourse, said: “We’re proud to offer an exciting calendar of 70 fixtures for 2026 at Newcastle Racecourse, with standout events like the All-Weather Finals, the historic Northumberland Plate, and the prestigious Fighting Fifth Hurdle.”
