Market Rasen Racecourse
Market Rasen Racecourse, which is part of The Jockey Club, stages over 20 jump racing fixtures each year and is a leading conference and events centre in the East Midlands.
The venue is one of the friendliest places in the country to watch jump racing, with events held throughout the year. The beautiful track, in a lovely rural setting where it has been since 1924, is best known as a premier summer jumping racecourse. Top races include the Grade 3 Summer Plate and the Summer Hurdle, both run during the annual Ladies’ Day in mid-July.
Families, especially at Market Rasen, are well looked after, with a number of Family Fun Days held during the calendar. Bouncy castles and other entertainment are available on selected days in the Lawn Enclosure. Two picnic car parks offer visitors an alternative view of the racing.
The racecourse attracts one of its largest attendances of the year at its traditional Boxing Day meeting, which is part and parcel of the Christmas festivities for thousands of people in Lincolnshire.
