Evening Flat Racing Race Meeting

If you are looking for a relaxed way to spend a Monday evening this summer, mark your calendar for the Race Meeting at Brighton Racecourse. This specific event, scheduled for Monday, June 22, 2026, is an Evening Flat Racing fixture, combining the competitive sport with the unique atmosphere of the coast at sunset. The Brighton Racecourse, situated on Race Hill (BN2 9XZ), is known for its fantastic location, offering views that stretch out over the sea and the city, making it a popular spot for both serious racing fans and those just looking for a good night out.

For those planning to attend, the gates are set to open at 18:00 (6:00 PM). While the exact start times for the races themselves are still subject to confirmation, the venue usually publishes the full racecard—detailing the runners, riders, and precise schedules—on the morning of the event. It is definitely worth checking the venue's site closer to the date for those crucial timings. Regarding entry, this is a ticketed event, but it’s good to know that children aged 17 and under get in for free when accompanied by an adult, and they won't require an advance ticket. This makes it a straightforward option if you are planning a family outing.

Beyond general admission, the Racecourse offers several ways to enhance the experience, catering to corporate clients, friends, or family groups. If you prefer a guaranteed seat and a meal, there are various hospitality packages available. These include dining options at the Silks Restaurant (which provides access to the Silks Terrace) or the Prince Regent Restaurant. For a more private setting, you can also look into the Private Suites and Boxes, such as the 'Sussex', 'Marina', or 'Winning Post' packages. These options typically provide the best views of the track and the surrounding scenery. This June fixture is just one highlight of the 2026 season, which also includes the Season Opening on April 18th and the main Racing Festival in early August.
