Port Augusta’s central location sees it as the heart of thoroughbred racing in the Spencer Gulf, and its facilities make it a premier site for racing. With the majestic Flinders Ranges as the backdrop to the Port Augusta racecourse, it has become famous for its breathtaking view.
The Port Augusta Race Club is located only 5 minutes from the CBD and 30 minutes from the popular Flinders Ranges.
If you haven't been to the races for a while, then today's the day! Catch up with friends and enjoy the facilities, as the course has been transformed with new viewing areas perfect for a great day out, watching the kids on the lawn areas.
