Join us on Saturday, 28 December for Rotorua's biggest raceday of the year!

Summer will be in full force and we've got a cracker of a raceday planned for locals and holiday visitors alike. 

Offering a wonderful day out for friends and families, spend the day in the sunshine taking in the thrill of thoroughbred racing. 

In addition to the racing action, we've got lots of kids entertainment (timed to perfection for exactly when the Christmas pressies have started to lose their allure), plenty of prizes to be won and fun to be had.  

General Admission is $10pp incl GST (at the gate on the day) or if you'd like to take the stress out of your day, pre-purchase one of our 'Table & Chairs' packages for $140 incl GST so all the hard stuff is taken care of (more below).
