Thames Racing Club Raceday

Thames Jockey Club Summer Family Raceday | Sunday 3 January 2027

Kick off the New Year with a classic summer tradition, the Thames Gold Cup, raced every January at Te Aroha Racecourse. It’s a relaxed, family-friendly day out featuring kids’ activities, summer raceday fashion, and the much-loved Thames Flounder Pack spot prizes.

This intergenerational favourite brings together families and friends from the Coromandel to the Plains for a vibrant day of racing, live music, and great food options from a range of food trucks.
