The annual Fireworks Spectacular Family Raceday returns to Ascot with a bang this November, promising an action-packed day filled with an array of activities for racegoers of all ages.

Featuring a high-quality card of jumps racing, finishing with one of Berkshire’s most impressive fireworks displays, this event is designed to light up the sky and create unforgettable memories for the entire family.

The day is built around an exciting seven-race card as the Jumps Season returns to Ascot, featuring the Gold Cup Handicap Chase, followed by what has been described by a stunning fireworks display.

A pyro-musical show will cap off the day in spectacular fashion with over 20,000 fireworks lighting up the sky from the heart of the racecourse, providing a thrilling finale to the day.

Racegoers can anticipate a fantastic range of off-track entertainment to complement the high-speed racing, including exhilarating fairground rides, captivating live performances, and an array of spooky activities. After the final race and before the fireworks show, visitors will have time to enjoy various rides and indulge in the diverse selection of food and drink on offer.

The race day is created with the local community at heart, held in association with the Ascot Round Table, which provides a safe environment for families to enjoy exhilarating sporting action and seasonal fun. All fairground rides are free during racing hours, with a minimal charge of £1 per ride starting at 4pm with all proceeds donated to hand-selected local charities.
