Laytown Races
Laytown | Updated: March 17, 2024 02:36 AM
Location: Laytown Race Course
Address: Strand Road, Laytown, Co. Meath, Ireland
Date: 16 September
The Laytown Races is a special horse racing meeting that takes place on just one day each September on the beach of Laytown, County Meath, Ireland.
The flat racing event occupies a unique position in the Irish racing calendar as Ireland’s only horse racing event run on a beach under the Rules of Racing. The races were first run in 1868 when they were run on the beach in conjunction with the Boyne Regatta: the rowing competition took place on the high tide and the horse racing began when the tide receded. Many of Ireland’s champion jockeys have ridden winners at the Laytown Races, including Ruby Walsh.
People travel from far and wide to enjoy the unique spectacle of racing on the beach with crowds in excess of 5,000 in attendance every year. i
