    promises to be a fantastic season of racing on the stunning Sussex Downs.

    This booklet is dedicated to providing you with all the information you should need
    about our 2020 fixtures. Featured in this publication, is the Qatar Goodwood Festival,
    taking place from 28 July – 1 August, which attracts some of the best racehorses
    in the world.

    We have included the provisional race programme, useful information on racecourse
    facilities and stabling, and maps and overviews of the various race meetings. If, however,
    you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact myself or one of our team.
    Useful contact details can be found at the back of this booklet.

    Once again there are a total of 14 scheduled race days outside of the Qatar Goodwood
    Festival Meeting for the 2020 season, including the three-day May Festival, which

      Our Raceweek Regency Ball gives us the ideal opportunity to honour the commitment of
      the inspirational and brilliant women who will be taking part in the Charity Ladies’ Race,
                the Magnolia Cup – all of the riders will be joining us for the evening.

        Featuring vintage entertainment and a famous match race between two horses at night
     through the park, which is entirely lit with flares, just as it was in the 18th Century; it really
     is a truly magical and uplifting sight. The whole evening is quite a spectacle, where the great
                    Regency House comes alive like an early 19th Century film set.

      The dress code is Regency and the evening starts with a Champagne reception at 7.30pm.
              Tickets are £215 per head, £2,000 per table of 10 or £2,400 per table of 12.
