Racegoers can bet on a Ladies Day full of entertainment this summer following news of a new sponsor deal for Newcastle Racecourse which will be introducing the likes of dining pods and pop-up bars to the action.
Gainford Group, the family company whose portfolio includes bar-restaurants and hotels across Newcastle, is to be the main sponsor on the day and will be helping the hugely popular event go with a swing on July 23, with new additions as well as the official after party - a hit on previous years - at its Quayside venue Aveika. A free shuttle bus will ferry racegoers there at the end of the day and entry will be free.
Ladies Day, like June's Plate Day, is a highlight of both the sporting and social calendar at High Gosforth Park and alway sees crowds dressed to the nines to enjoy the occasion. There is a range of ticket options available to pick from and now there is also a Gainford Pods in the Park Package to tempt people.
