It's the annoucement racing fans have been waiting for, spectators can return to Salisbury Racecourse.

Tickets are going on sale at 6pm today (11th May) via the racecourse website for three meetings:

  • Saturday May 29th,
  • Tuesday 8th June
  • Sunday 13th.

The Racecourse says it's delighted to be getting back on track after racing behind closed doors since last July!

"We are so happy to be able to open our doors to you again, racing ‘behind closed doors’ has certainly been an interesting experience & we’ve missed the buzz of a crowd. "

"Things might be a little different but we hope you will enjoy being back with us."

WHAT'S DIFFERENT?

Tickets have to be purchased online and must be purchased individually to comply with 'track and trace' in the name of the person attending.

Tickets will only be available for the Grandstand or Sarum Enclosure not the Bibury Enclosure and they'll be no access to the paddock, that will be for owners only.

The paddock area will be for owners only, not the public.

No tickets will be available on the gate.

Racegoers may be required to provide photo ID to gain entry.

Specators will also be required to wear a mask and not remove it unless seated to eat or drink or are medically exempt.

They'll also be designated parking depending on your enclosure badge.
