This week sees the long awaited return of racing at Newmarket. It kicks off with the Craven Meeting at the Rowley Mile. Shortly followed by The QIPCO Guineas Festival. June sees the move to the July Racecourse with seven Newmarket Nights and the Moët & Chandon July Festival, where the fashion stakes are high. Then its back to the Rowley Mile in September through until the end of October.
Unique to this year’s calendar is the specially branded Suffolk Day on Saturday 14th May and the Cambridgeshire County Day on Thursday 23rd June. These two special days are part of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Celebrations. Expect to see lots of additional entertainment alongside two great days of racing.
For the most cost effective way to experience all the live action why not purchase an annual badge. An Annual Badge will give you access to all 39 race meetings hosted at Newmarket in 2022, including some of the very best quality racing, pulsating music nights and epic family days. Whether you’re an avid race goer who wants to experience world class racing events or a fan of fantastic days out including live music and family entertainment, the Annual Badge will be perfect for you.
A 2022 Annual Badge includes the following benefits:
All of this, and more, from just £13.33 a meeting!
