The Betfair Weekend Family Fun Day is a colorful spectacle that offers something for everyone, with a combination of thrilling racing action and free entertainment for the children. The day is aimed at our younger audience where they can meet the characters from some of their favourite TV shows including Ben and Holly from their Little Kingdom, Scooby Doo and his wacky Roller Coaster and Fireman Sam along with his fireman friends and real fire engine. A highlight of the afternoon will be Peppa Pig and her little brother George telling stories in the Bandstand.
