Separately booked restaurant and hospitality packages include their own admission badges and meals or reserved rooms.

All-enclosure access
Premier Enclosure
The smartest public enclosure, with the 1690 Bar and Terrace, Attraction Restaurant and access to all three Beverley enclosures.
Paddock access
Grandstand & Paddock Enclosure

Bring a picnic
Picnic Enclosure
A relaxed grass area in the centre of the track, where you can bring food and limited alcohol, or book a car or minibus space close to the racing.
Compare every enclosure side by side: prices, views, bars and food, dress codes and entrances.
Dress code at Beverley Racecourse
Beverley uses suggested dress guidance rather than a uniform formal code. Picnic is the most relaxed enclosure and welcomes shorts, T-shirts and non-offensive fancy dress. Grandstand & Paddock also allows jeans, trainers and sportswear. Premier asks for a smart overall appearance but permits tailored shorts and T-shirts; sportswear and fancy dress are normally excluded there, apart from specified theme days. Check your fixture’s guidance if attending a themed meeting, and choose clothes suited to the forecast.

Getting to Beverley
Beverley is north of Hull, on the Hull–Scarborough railway.
By train
Trains from Hull about every 25 minutes. The course is about 1.7 miles from the station by car because of the one-way system; walking is shorter.
By bus
Regular buses to Beverley from Hull, York and Leeds.
By car
Free parking outside the course on the Westwood; the Picnic Enclosure car ticket lets you park inside.
Parking at Beverley Racecourse
Parking on Beverley’s Westwood is free and available to visitors in every enclosure, including private coaches. Taking a car into the Picnic Enclosure is a separate paid option, so check the official details before choosing between the two. The Picnic vehicle entrance is clearly marked near the cattle grid at the top of the Westwood. Vehicles can enter and leave when racing is not in progress. Use HU17 8QZ for the course and follow its event signs.

Evenings in Beverley
Beverley’s evenings take place in town, around the historic centre and Flemingate. The programme ranges from live theatre to film, followed by pubs, food and local bars.
- Live performance
East Riding Theatre
This small venue in a converted Baptist chapel presents music, drama and comedy in Beverley town centre. Its programme gives a reason to extend a race visit overnight; the 2027 fixture calendar includes evening racing on 15 June, 2 July and 19 July.
- Film and arts screenings
Parkway Cinema at Flemingate
The independent cinema screens recent films as well as opera, ballet and theatre relays. Flemingate is also a town-centre place for food and shops, so it works for a self-contained dinner-and-film evening.
- Historic pubs and drinks
White Horse Inn, Chequers and the Rose & Crown
Visit East Yorkshire’s pub guide highlights the gas-lit rooms of the White Horse Inn (known locally as Nellie’s), cask beer and cider at Chequers Micropub, and the Rose & Crown’s food, cocktails and ales; the guide dates the latter’s history back more than 400 years.

Things to do while you are here
Beverley’s historic centre makes a good second-day plan: the Minster and St Mary’s anchor two ends of the town, while the Treasure House combines local collections and visitor facilities under one roof.
Beverley Minster
A landmark Gothic church with a history of worship on the site stretching back 1,300 years. It is open to visitors daily, 10am–4pm, except 26 December; entry is free, with donations welcome. Guided roof tours and Minster tours are offered, and Sunday morning visitor access is limited to the west end until services finish.
St Mary’s Church
At the other end of the town centre, St Mary’s is a large medieval parish church with a painted ceiling, carved details and the white rabbit said to have inspired Lewis Carroll. Check its own visitor page for opening information and events.
Champney Treasure House
The council-run museum introduces East Riding history and culture through changing exhibitions and collection displays, including the South Cave Weapons Cache discovered in 2002. The building also brings together the library, archives, art gallery, café and tourist information; museum entry is free.
Beverley Westwood
This wide common on the edge of town is shared by walkers, grazing animals and the racecourse. It gives visitors open space for a walk or picnic and explains the unusual setting of the track.
On the day
Useful arrival and ticket details from Beverley Racecourse. The 2027 fixture dates are published, while its meeting-specific race-time schedule is still to come.
Tickets on your phone
The racecourse scans e-tickets straight from a phone. Subject to availability, gate sales are offered at some meetings; online sales can continue until the first race and are cheaper than gate prices.
Children and enclosure exceptions
Accompanied under-18s go free in most enclosures and do not need a ticket. In the Premier Enclosure, ages 5–17 need tickets on Saturday fixtures and Ladies Day; the published 2027 calendar lists Ladies Day on Wednesday 11 August.
Parking and transport
Parking on Beverley Westwood opposite the course is free. A pre-booked car ticket lets you park inside the Picnic Enclosure. Buses from Hull, York and Leeds stop outside the course; Beverley trains from Hull run about every 25 minutes, and the course is roughly 1.7 miles from the station by road.
Card and cash
Beverley encourages card payment at bars, but the FAQ says cash remains accepted at designated bars and food outlets and by on-course bookmakers and the Tote. Wi-Fi is free across the site.
Families and groups
Children are welcome in every Beverley enclosure. Accompanied under-18s are generally admitted free, with specific ticket exceptions in the Premier Enclosure.
2027 Family Fun Racedays
The racecourse’s 2027 list names Family Fun Racedays on 3 May, 26 May, 27 July and 29 August; it notes that the 29 August date awaits ITV confirmation. Accompanied under-18s are free in Grandstand & Paddock and Picnic. Children aged 5–17 need a Premier ticket at Saturday meetings and on Ladies Day.

A little history
- 1690Beverley Racecourse dates its opening to 1690, when racing began on the Westwood. The present track’s setting on common pasture has remained part of its identity.
- 1767The racecourse says its first grandstand was built in 1767, only 15 years after the Jockey Club was founded.
- 1914–1918During the First World War, the Royal Flying Corps and Canadian RAF used the course as an aerodrome. Its uphill finish became a runway before racing returned after the war.
