Family Entertainment

Racing is a family occasion and the Guineas Festival is no exception! There will be plenty of free entertainment to keep the children amused: in the Grandstand and Paddock Enclosure there will be a traditional funfair and lots of interactive fun, such as the rare opportunity to sit in a spitfire and the chance to meet Rowley the Racehorse. The Family Enclosure will also be open, with bouncy castles, face painters and of course, the thrilling spectacle of watching the horses thunder to the finishing line.
