Tipperary Races

Tipperary Racecourse is a left-handed, tight, oval-shaped Irish horse racing venue outside the town of the same name in County Tipperary.

Lying between Limerick and Clonmel, the sharp track hosts both National Hunt action over jumps and flat races between April and October. Famous Tipperary races include the Grade 3 Grimes Hurdle over the summer and Group 3 Concorde Stakes during a mixed card in the autumn.

A full circuit of the track is about a mile-and-a-quarter, but there is also a chute for flat sprints. This course suits speedier types of horse in both codes with a run-in of an extended quarter of a mile.

Tipperary Racecourse Behind Closed Doors

Tipperary races are currently being run behind closed doors because of the ongoing COVID-19 situation. This is set to be reviewed and updated in line with government advice, with Tipperary Racecourse keen to welcome back punters as soon as it is safe to do so.

It’s still worth checking Tipperary races fixtures because the decision to allow spectators in could change. If you book tickets to a Tipperary Racecourse event that is then moved to behind closed doors, refunds will be processed through the official course website.
