In the countdown to Christmas, the Howden Christmas Racing Weekend showcases top-quality, high stakes Jumps racing on Friday 16 and Saturday 17 December.
Ascot’s much-loved event is made extra-special this year as a traditional Nutcracker-themed Christmas is brought to life in the grounds of the historic racecourse with roaming toy soldiers, wish fairies and parlour games taking place on the Saturday, our dedicated family day. There will be an abundance of seasonal fun for racegoers of all ages, including candle-lit carol singing with the Ascot Brass band, fairground rides, face painting and the chance to see Father Christmas himself.
The competition is set to be thrilling, with a quality Jumps card featuring a pair of Grade 2 races on the Friday, both valuable prizes that often throw up notable performers on the road to the Cheltenham Festival. Saturday’s racing will be headlined by the Grade 1 Howden Long Walk Hurdle, one of Britain’s most prestigious long-distance hurdle races. The weekend, jam-packed with exciting activities, is truly not one to be
missed. Gather family and friends to celebrate the festive season in style and enjoy the most valuable meeting of Ascot’s Jumps season, as the
Christmas holidays begin in earnest.
Tickets from £20, Under 18s Go Free.
Fine Dining from £169 + VAT per person. Private Boxes available.
Christmas-themed activities on Saturday only.
