What to know
Chester Racecourse lists gates at 11:30, the first race at 13:35 and the last race at 17:12. Treat this as a full city-centre race day: allow time for queues, check the enclosure you are buying for, and expect the Roodee and nearby pubs to be busy before and after racing.
Roodee general admission was listed from £20 when checked. Children aged 17 and under can attend general admission areas free, but hospitality child tickets need pre-booking with the racecourse.
