Fun for all the family at our Family Raceday - Sunday 23 July

Free goody bags*, face painting, inflatable fun, and of course… great racing await as our Family Raceday returns on Sunday 23 July. With free entry too for all under 18s, its the perfect family day out in Devon this July!

Free children’s goody bags

Our Family Raceday is always a popular date in our racing calendar and this year’s raceday won’t disappoint. To start the day on a high, we’ll be giving away a FREE goody bag* to the first 200 children through the gates on the day. Filled with activities to entertain our younger guests, its worth arriving early for.

Inflatable fun

Head over to the Course Enclosure on Family Day where you’ll find inflatable fun for our younger guests to enjoy** . You’ll also find our play park in the Course Enclosure – situated next to the race track, it provides a great place for children to play whilst parents still enjoy a great view of the day’s racing action.

** Please note, our original face painter has unfortunately contracted Covid and is no longer able to join us tomorrow. We have however managed to find a new provider who will be able to join us from around 1pm tomorrow and will be situated on the decking area.
