August Bank Holiday Weekend

24th, 25th & 26th August*

* Starts 5:10pm Friday, 2:15pm Saturday & 2:10pm Sunday

Step into Goodwood and step back in time

Why not mosey along on Friday after work for a brill night out, join us for a flutter on the Betfair Celebration Mile on Saturday, or bring the whole family on Sunday for what’s sure to be a jolly day out all round?

We’ve got a classic treat lined up for you this August Bank Holiday as we rekindle the nostalgic Summer Holidays of yesteryear, with three days of magnificent racing as well as heaps of excitement.

A three-day festival of 1950s fun and frivolity, combined with a top class calendar of racing to boot.

Putting on the style

We’d love to see you dressed in a jaunty little ‘50s number – so dust off those dapper double-breasted suits, fab floral swing skirts, lacy gloves and Brylcreem. But whatever you decide to wear, be it vintage Dior or 21st Century Chanel, please remember that jeans and shorts are a definite no-no in the Richmond Enclosure.

FUN FOR ALL THE FAMILY

We’ve got a fantastic choice of traditional 1950s entertainment planned to make sure you all have a great time. There’s an old-fashioned funfair with a helter-skelter and carousel, a replica beach front complete with beach huts and sandcastles, live music that’ll bring out the jive bunny in you and a scrumptious selection of cream teas and other ‘tiffin’ too.

Tuck in

We’ve got some top notch refreshments so you can eat and drink to your heart’s content in the many bars and restaurants| throughout the course. Remember though, our restaurants do get jolly packed, so book your table today.

Gordon’s - It’s got to be

Hot-foot it down to the Gordon Enclosure for a cocktail or two in the swanky Gordon’s Bar. With a cool ambiance and intimate private outdoor alcoves (first come, first served – so if you snooze, you lose), this is where the cool cats hang!
