DOWN ROYAL, IRELAND
Friday 3rd November to Sunday 5th November 2023
This is the highlight of the Down Royal Racecourse calendar and is a tremendous two days of racing, which features the first Grade 1 Steeplechase of the Irish National Hunt Season.
The feature race is the Ladbrokes Champion Chase, won by Envoi Allen in 2022 and is supported by a range of Grade 2 and 3 races throughout the two days.
Belfast is one of the hottest destinations in Europe to visit. Quick to charm and packed with brilliant attractions, including the world-class Titanic Belfast, this is a city that’s bursting with creativity.
You’ll see it in the boundary-pushing art galleries of the Cathedral Quarter, in the super-cool pop-up restaurants that spring up around the city, and in the bustle of St George’s Market, where artisan food producers rub shoulders with craftspeople (Fri-Sun).
Dig a little deeper, and you’ll uncover the layers of history that make Belfast such a compelling place, from its Bronze Age origins to its prosperous shipbuilding past.
