Sanlucar de Barrameda is also noted for its horse
racing which dates back to 1845 and takes place along a 1,800m
stretch of beach at the mouth of the Río Guadalquivir during the
month of August, from 6.00pm. This is a thrilling spectacle where
real racehorses thunder across the sand watched by a large noisy
crowd of spectators. There is nothing amateur about this event
and you can expect to see spectator stands, bookmakers, paddocks
and of course the winners enclosure. Now an international event
with horses from other European countries taking part and many
famous names amongst the spectators.
The dates for the
2020 horse racing in
Sanlucar
de Barrameda are 13, 14, 16 August & 28, 29, 30 August 2020.
