Students, this one is for you! Newcastle hosts an October Student Racenight with an evening of floodlit flat racing on the All-Weather Track this Friday.
Make this October one to remember—your weekend starts at the racecourse. We are still finalising detail about the event, but you’re sure to dance the night away in style with the excitement of racing as a backdrop.
As autumn settles over Newcastle, the racecourse comes alive with the pulse of October racing. Crisp air and golden horizons set the scene for thrilling flat races on the all-weather track, where speed meets strategy in every stride. Horses dig deep, jockeys make bold moves, and the crowd rides every moment with anticipation.
Floodlit racing transforms the track into a dazzling stage of speed and drama. As darkness falls, the illuminated course amplifies every stride, leap, and cheer. It’s a breathtaking spectacle—where twilight tension meets high-octane action, creating unforgettable moments under the glow of racing lights. With so much action on the track is the ultimate way to spend your Friday night.
