The evenings may be getting cooler, but there’s still time for one more summer-style night out. Join us at Bath Racecourse on Wednesday 2nd September for an evening of live racing, crisp autumn air, and a relaxed midweek vibe — the perfect way to make the most of the changing season.
Swap the midweek routine for the thrill of live sport. Gates open late afternoon, so you can head straight from the office, grab a drink, and get ready for a card of competitive flat racing as the sun sets over the Somerset countryside. The atmosphere is welcoming and laid-back, making it ideal for colleagues, friends, or anyone looking for something different to do on a Wednesday night.
Warm up with a drink from one of the bars, enjoy tasty food from our street stalls, and catch up with friends between races. Whether you watch from the grandstand, stand trackside by the rails, or choose a hospitality package for guaranteed seating and a meal, you’ll be right at the heart of the action.
If you’re searching for things to do in Bath in September or looking for midweek events in Somerset, this fixture is the perfect choice. Evening racing is one of the most atmospheric ways to experience the sport — there’s something special about cheering the horses home as the floodlights come on and dusk settles over the Downs.
