Bangor On Dee Racecourse

Wrexham

Bangor-on-Dee Racecourse is a left handed jumps racecourse, nestled in picturesque countryside and surrounded by idyllic Welsh hills.

Bangor Racecourse offers racegoers an entirely unique experience, especially since it is the only racecourse in the country to not have a grandstand. Bangor-on-Dee was first used for horse racing in 1859 and over a century and a half later, horses still race on virtually the exact same track. 

In the modern day, many of the top trainers send their horses to race at Bangor as part of their education. Paul Nicholls, Donald McCain, Alan King, Phillip Hobbs, Nicky Henderson and Jonjo O’Neill all have regular runners. Since 2006, Bangor has also hosted point-to-point races by amateur local hunts. Bangor-on-Dee hosts racing all year round with 14 fixtures a year. Popular fixtures include Family Day, Ladies Day, Halloween Day and the Christmas Special. 

In addition to its racing heritage, Bangor-on-Dee has branched out to offer services ranging from weddings and conferences, to exhibitions and events. This is made possible by Bangor’s two on-site restaurants, The Wynnstay and The Paddock. For  more information and to book tickets visit our website bangoronedeeraces.co.uk.
