Bangor-on-Dee
Bangor-on-Dee Racecourse is a left-handed jumps racecourse set in glorious countryside and overlooked by the Welsh hills. Bangor-on-Dee has a unique character, exemplified by the fact that this is the only Racecourse in the country that doesn’t have a Grandstand! No worries on the viewing front though as the main grass viewing bank provides a natural amphitheatre to the racing action. The much improved permanent facilities also provide ample resources for all racegoers. Over the course of the year, there are 13 fixtures spread throughout the four seasons giving everyone a chance to come racing at some point in the year and experience the magical charm of Bangor races. Jump racing has been taking place at Bangor on Dee Racecourse since 1859 and is steeped in history. All the greatest jump jockeys have ridden here and the present crop of top jockeys all regularly turn up at each meeting. In 2002, Bangor-on-Dee joined up with our sister track, Chester Racecourse, where you can also enjoy some fantastic and glamorous flat racing during the summer months.
