Saturday evenings in December are made for celebrations, and Newcastle Racecourse provides the perfect stage. Under the glow of the floodlights, experience all-weather racing at its very best alongside a lively seasonal atmosphere. This isn’t just about the racing — it’s about festive cheer, winter nights, and creating memories with friends and family.
Dig out your brightest, boldest, or silliest Christmas knit and take part in the fun. With our best dressed jumper competition, there are prizes on offer for those who bring their festive fashion A-game. Whether it’s glitter, lights, or a classic patterned pullover, this is your chance to stand out and get into the seasonal spirit.
Alongside the festive fun, enjoy the thrill of racing under the lights. From the first race to the last, top-class horses and jockeys battle it out on the all-weather track, with every stride cheered on by the crowd. The combination of floodlit racing, a buzzing Saturday night crowd, and festive celebrations makes this one of the standout nights of the year.
