Guildhall Shopping Exeter Family Raceday

Easter at Exeter Racecourse means racing, running and a racecourse full of family fun.

On Sunday 22 March 2026, the Guildhall Shopping Exeter Family Raceday brings together live jump racing and a packed programme of free children’s entertainment.

Young racegoers can take part in children’s running races on the home straight, charging towards the finish line to a grandstand full of cheers. Free goody bags add to the excitement, with activities running throughout the afternoon to keep energy high between races.

The main event remains the racing itself, with horses and jockeys thundering up the home straight in a full afternoon of competitive action.

South West Wildlife will also host an information stand on the day.

Under 18s go free. Family ticket available in advance for £28 for two adults and unlimited children aged 17 and under.

Free return bus from Exeter St David’s departing at 12.15pm and returning at 5.55pm.

A proper Easter day out with noise, colour and a finish line for everyone.
