How much does it cost to park my car?
Car parking is free. Access is limited during a race, but available between races.
Which car park should I use?
The public car park is in the centre of the course. Early arrival is recommended if you want to park adjacent to the racecourse. Picnics are welcomed, and BBQ’s permitted on the condition that they are kept a distance from the track.
What time do the gates open?
Afternoon meetings:
Gates open at 12.00pm for all afternoon meetings.
Evening Horse Racing Meetings:
Evening Meetings, gates open at 5.00pm.
What should I wear?
We do not have a strict dress code at Les Landes and recommend that you dress for the weather. Those guests dining in the members and corporate enclosure will tend to dress smartly, but with our relaxed approach are not required to wear jackets or ties. Ladies often wear hats in the marquee. In the public areas, dress is informal. Stiletto heels may not be suitable due to the terrain.
What is there to do before racing?
Are there restaurants available?
There is a restaurant in the Members Marquee, which you can gain entry to if you have purchased a “Day Members” Badge. Booking is essential, and that can be done via our catering partners UpTheRaces. Their booking site is www.uptheraces.com. All entrance badges are purchased via the race club.
There are food concessions and a bar in the public area.
Can I bring food or drink into the racecourse?
Can we picnic in the car parks?
Yes, but only within the limits of your car parking space. Please note parasols, sunshades and umbrellas are not permitted to hang over the running rails.
Where should I wear my badge?
Where can I bet?
There are two forms of betting available at the course. The club run tote provides betting windows and mobile operators around the course. For more information on Tote betting please see our Tote page.
Bookmakers are located close to the finishing post.
Where can I find out the state of the going?
The forecast is published on racecourse information boards. You can also check out our Twitter feed.
What facilities are there for the disabled?
Disabled parking is located in our Officials Car Park. A valid blue badge is required.
There is a viewing stand reserved for our disabled race goers, very close to the finish line.
Can I obtain cash?
There is not a cash point available. Nearest is in St Ouen Village.
Can I bring my dog?
Dogs are permitted, but must be kept on a lead at all times and kept away from the Parade Ring if they are likely to agitate the horses. Please ensure you pick up after your dog.
Where is lost property?
Please see the Clerk of the Course or the Secretary for lost property enquiries or report to the weighing room.
Will there be a doctor?
Doctors are present at each race day event. The first-aid point, where St John Ambulance personnel are on duty, is adjacent to the parade rings.
Can I bring my children?
Yes. Better still, accompanied youngsters, under 18, are admitted free to all enclosures.
Is there a crèche?
There is no crèche available.
