Make the most of the Southland summer with a cheerful Christmas Raceday at Central Southland Raceway. Winton turns on an easygoing, country-style afternoon where families, friends, and racing fans can settle in for a fun, relaxed day at The Trots.

Entry is free, so bring a picnic, spark up the BBQ, or grab a coffee from Nana Rails before finding a spot on the grass. Got a sports team or work crew to wrangle before Christmas? Grab a hospitality room and kick back together with the best view on course.

There’s plenty lined up for the kids, including a Santa visit, lolly scramble, and Kidz Kartz Pony Racing, while the Sunflower Café and public bar keep everyone else sorted. Expect a friendly crowd, festive touches, and an afternoon of exciting harness racing.
