Choose the Eastern Festival day that suits your racing style

Official Eastern Festival event artwork for Great Yarmouth Racecourse.

Great Yarmouth Racecourse’s Eastern Festival offers three different ways to enjoy a September race day:

  • Tuesday 15 September — Gents Day
  • Wednesday 16 September — John Musker Fillies Stakes day
  • Thursday 17 September — Ladies Day

These dates replace earlier 1–3 September calendar information.

Choose the day that suits the group

Gents Day opens the festival with an optional best-dressed competition. Wednesday centres on the John Musker Fillies Stakes. Ladies Day closes the festival with another style-led social occasion alongside the racing.

Wait for the confirmed race-day clock

The official pages currently show gates, first race, last race, race count, race type and going as TBA. Do not arrange transport or later bookings around guessed timings.

The racecourse is on Jellicoe Road. A later Marine Parade meal can be a separate seafront choice, but it should not be sold as part of the festival route.
