About Laytown Races
Laytown Races occupies a unique position on the Irish and English Racing Calendar as it is the only race event run on the beach under the rules of the Turf Club. An alternative surface to the usual turf, dirt, and all-weather, and far from the manicured grass of the likes of Ascot and Cheltenham. Laytown Beach is located on the East Coast of Ireland in County Meath with stunning sceneries that stretch across the Irish Seas. Racing takes place in September and is timed crucially with the pattern of the tide.
People travel from far and wide to witness the spectacle of horse racing on the beach in Ireland, with crowds in excess of 5,000 in attendance every year enjoying six races run over a mixture of six and seven furlongs.
Laytown Races Dress Code
There is no official dress code at Laytown Races.
As the event is exposed to the elements on the beach guests are encouraged to dress for the weather!
Laytown Races Raceday Timings
Schedule is based on the 2026 event and can change due to the timings of the tide.
Laytown Races Flights
There are regular flights to Dublin from many UK airports. Our experiences do not include flights, but they can be added to your package if required.
We book your racecourse transfers to coincide with your flight timings.
