'The Opening Day' of the highly anticipated Galway Races Summer Festival kicks off with a colourful musical opening performance by The Galway Tenor's in our parade ring before the first race. In 2020 Galway City and County will celebrate its European Capital of Culture. Lots of plans in store! Watch this space...
Widely renowned as ‘Ladies Day’ at the Galway Festival, Thursday combines the very best in racing and fashion for the pinnacle of the summer racing calendar.
With seven very competitive races on the card, Friday is always a hugely popular evening race meeting, and a great way to kick off the Bank Holiday weekend.
A day out with your family with fun and colour at the heart of this special day. Families are warmly welcomed here in Ballybrit.
The final day of the Summer Festival 2020 epitomises that old adage about saving the best for last! Hugley popular 'Mad Hatters Day' with fantastic prizes on offer.
Galway Racecourse plays host to one of the greatest race meetings in the world, the famous and iconic Galway Races Summer Festival, that boasts seven days of superb racing, hospitality, entertainment, stunning fashion and an electric atmosphere that continues to draw people from Ireland and abroad to experience the magic that is ‘The Galway Races’.
The racecourse offers a great selection of hospitality facilities and continually strives to offer the race goer a wonderful raceday experience.
Over 145,000 people attended the Galway Races in 2019. The total prize fund for the fifty-two sponsored races at the Summer Festival was an impressive €2.3 million!
If you fancy a flutter while at the course, there are various options for placing a bet at the Galway Races; the Tote, on-course betting shops and on-course bookmakers.
Turnstiles will open each day at approximately two hours before the first race. We look forward to welcoming you all to Galway very soon.
