About The Event
The Festival produces an atmosphere that is unique. The roar of the crowd as the tapes rise for the first race on Tuesday signals the moment when the 12 month wait is over and Jump racing’s favourite fixture is back. The combination of the huge crowds, the amazing setting and the sense that you are watching history being made produces a sporting cocktail like no other.
