About This Event

Ladies Day is Hexham Racecourse's most glamorous fixture of the year, combining a full afternoon of National Hunt jump racing with best-dressed competitions, live entertainment, and a festival atmosphere. Set 800 feet above sea level with panoramic views across the Tyne Valley, there are few more dramatic settings for a summer day out. Expect a full card of competitive racing alongside food and drink options. The event regularly sells out — booking in advance is strongly recommended. Dress code is smart, with many racegoers going all-out for the best-dressed prize.
