Monmore Green Stadium, which has been in Wolverhampton since 1928, is continuing its long-standing tradition of offering free general admission on Friday December 26th.

Doors open at 9.30am with the first of 12 races on the day coming at 10.28am, with the venue hoping for a strong attendance – Boxing Day tending to attract one of their biggest crowds of the year.

Restaurant packages for the day are already sold out, but Party Pack deals for over-18s can be purchased while the general admission area caters for all ages, with snack bar, bar and both Tote and on-course bookmaker facilities available.
