A Friendly Welcome on the Norfolk Coast

Great Yarmouth - known simply as "Yarmouth" to locals - is a classic English seaside town on the Norfolk coast, built around its famous seafront, known locally as "the Golden Mile." Just a mile from Great Yarmouth Station and the heart of the town, the racecourse sits perfectly placed for a day at the races followed by an evening on the prom.

Racing by the Coast

Great Yarmouth Racecourse offers a genuine seaside racing experience, drawing crowds looking to combine an afternoon of Flat racing with everything the coast has to offer.

It’s easy access from the town centre and the Golden Mile makes it a natural fit for a full day out, whether racing is the main event or just the start of one.
