Welcome to the Port Lincoln Racing Club website. We are located on the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia; known for seafood, surf, breathtaking scenery and a love of thoroughbred racing. The highlight of the clubs racing calendar is the Port Lincoln Cup which is held in early March annually.

The 2020/21 race season also welcomes the New Year's Eve meeting back on the calendar with a Twilight Meet on Thursday 31/12/20... what a great way to see out the old year and and welcome in the new!

As usual this season we are proudly supporting Ronald McDonald House and the wonderful work that they do by donating $1 from every race book sold, $1 for every single gate entry on 2020 Cup Day and all of our recycling dollars from cans and bottles collected over the whole race season at race days and any functions. During our four years of association Port Lincoln Racing Club have donated over $38,000 to Ronald McDonald House, Adelaide.with a doation of over $5,500 raised last season!

Ronald McDonald House, Adelaide is the official charity recipient for the Port Lincoln Racing Club.
