When you need to dust off the cobwebs after all the Christmas overindulgence, what could be more perfect than a day at the races at Fontwell Park?
The Fontwell Boxing Day Christmas meeting is a firm favourite with Sussex locals and become a tradition for many families. There’s a wonderfully relaxed feel to the occasion as you enjoy some welcome fresh air in the West Sussex countryside and additional entertainment to make this a great day out with the kids.
There will be several top-class races throughout the day.
Get involved with festive entertainment including festive Grinch Christmas character, Mrs Santa stilt walker and mirror people providing a cool optical illusion.
Alongside all the festive fun, enjoy the sixth part of the Chase Series on track. The Fontwell Park Chase Series is an eleven-race series taking place from September 2024-March 2025. There are 10 qualifier races in which the top 8 of each race are eligible to enter the £40k prize money Final in March 2025.
The Main Entrace Car Park will be open on Boxing Day and is not bookable. It will operate on first come first serve basis.
Fontwell Park has a number of luxury restaurant and hospitality options with access to superb trackside viewing balconies and panoramic views of picturesque Sussex racecourse. It’s a great opportunity to treat friends and family. We have a number of options to suit all budgets and requirements.
