About Newmarket Nights
For an evening out with a difference choose one of our famous Newmarket Nights. Offering an irresistible cocktail of adrenaline-filled racing action, a flutter on the horses, a glass of iced cold beer, Champagne or Pimms and an open air concert by a well known band or artiste, these evenings really are a must for a great night out with friends, family, clients or colleagues. The racing gets underway early evening and concludes as night falls, immediately followed by the post racing, open-air concert. The bars remain open until the conclusion of the concert. To be sure of a ticket, advance booking is necessary for these events.

Weekend Fixtures
Family Day The July Course hosts a series of very popular Saturday afternoon fixtures and Newmarket's only Sunday fixture during the peak summer period, each following a Friday evening or afternoon card. The meeting is very popular with families and a wonderful way to spend a summer's afternoon.

The Rowley Mile hosts racing of the highest calibre during the Spring and Autumn, including two of Britain's five classic races in early May: the Stan James 1000 and 2000 Guineas.
