Horse racing event with live DJ and entertainment for university students.
Welcome to Student Raceday in partnership with Dropkick Murphys Irish Bar, the ultimate student social highlight of the academic year.
Ready for another unforgettable day out? The Student Raceday brings together the best of racing, music, fashion, and friends. Expect an electric atmosphere, live entertainment, great food and drink, and lots of students coming together to celebrate in style. While it’s a firm favourite in the student calendar, everyone is welcome to join the thrill of this raceday (please note, access to the INVADES marquee is only permitted with an INVADES ticket).
It’s the perfect chance to meet new people, dress to impress, and experience a true Scottish student tradition. From first-year memories to final-year celebrations, Student Raceday is where the student calendar comes alive.
A live DJ will be performing within the Invades Enclosure - you will need an Invades ticket to access this enclosure. You will not permitted access to this enclosure with a general admission ticket (adult, concession, child or one of our food packages) or hospitality badge.
We are delighted to continue welcoming students from across Scotland. They will experience the thrill of flat racing alongside our passionate regular racegoers, who are the best advocates for our sport. Following feedback, we have enhanced the raceday experience with additional bars for students, while racegoers holding regular raceday tickets can enjoy dedicated facilities, including The Rockavon bar and Café 1816.
Join thousands of students for an unforgettable experience at Musselburgh Racecourse, featuring:
