Down Royal Racecourse confirms Fibrus Broadband as headline sponsor of its popular Family Race Day

t’s set to be an action-packed fusion of racing and family entertainment, with headline sponsor Fibrus Broadband back to help transform Down Royal into the ultimate playground for racing fans and families alike.

Now firmly established as one of the most popular fixtures in Down Royal's annual racing calendar, this year's event promises another unforgettable day out for families across Northern Ireland, combining top-class National Hunt racing with a packed programme of family entertainment. From petting farm and pony rides to bouncy castles and face painting, the enclosure will ensure a magical day out for racegoers of every generation.

The pre-race excitement has already kicked off in local primary schools across Lisburn and Hillsborough with the ‘Design a Jockey Silk’ competition.

One lucky primary school pupil will see their artistic vision brought to life as a professionally manufactured silk displayed at the track on race day.

Chloe Ferris, Commercial Director at Down Royal Racecourse, added: "The Fibrus Family Race Day has grown year on year into one of the standout dates in our calendar here at Down Royal, and the enthusiasm from families across the region continues to blow us away each year.

"With general admission, children under 14 can attend for free with a ticket-holding adult, making it outstanding value for families looking for a brilliant day out this spring.

"Whether you are a seasoned racing fan or bringing the kids to the track for the very first time, this is a day not to be missed."
