We’re heading back to the 80s with our Retro Festival Raceday, featuring exciting entertainment and unmissable National Hunt racing all afternoon. Join us at Fontwell Park Racecourse on Friday 4th October for our Retro Festival Raceday for the perfect way to start the weekend.
To get in the spirit of the 80s we’ve got plenty in store to keep you entertained:
🚗 Vintage car display
🛵 Vespas and mopeds
🎶 Live music
🎯 Keith Deller 1983 World Darts Challenge. Be in the chance of winning a sign darts board, t-shirt and set of darts!
Alongside great retro entertainment, enjoy thrilling jumps racing all afternoon.
Imagine: you’re trackside, wrapped up against the autumnal breeze, sipping on drinks with friends and seeing in the weekend in one day early.
Weekday racing has its own appeal – it's ideal for those who aren't tied to the the set Monday-Friday schedule. Skip the weekend hustle and bustle, and enjoy the smaller crowds. Whether you're looking for a laid-back outing or want to be the first to know about rising stars in the sport, our horse racing event in West Sussex has got you covered.
Grab your tickets online before the event to enjoy some savings!
Group bookings can save £5 per ticket when booking groups of 10 or more!
And of course, you can also pick up tickets and concessions at the gate when you arrive if you prefer.
