December brings a special magic to Friday evenings at Southwell Racecourse, making each racenight feel truly festive and exciting. Wrap up warm and join us for an evening full of thrilling horse racing action, surrounded by a lively and welcoming atmosphere.
Cheering your favourites down the final furlong is even more enjoyable on a Friday night in December. Whether you prefer to brave the cool air trackside or cosy up inside with hot drinks and live screens, Southwell provides the perfect setting for all racing fans to soak up the festive spirit.
The busy festive season can sometimes feel overwhelming, but a night at the races keeps things simple and fun. Enjoy an inviting atmosphere suitable for all ages, delicious food and drink options, and plenty of sporting excitement. It’s an ideal way to get together with friends and family during the winter months.
