Sponsoring the Family day since 2011, the AES Bord na Móna Family Day has well established itself with race-goers as an essential family outing. The day is guaranteed to keep the whole family entertained with thrilling sporting action, live entertainment, an interactive fun area and much more - making the day even more attractive for families is the fact that kids go free all day.

With over 29,000 race-goers expected to attend the races this year the AES Fun Zone featuring an arts and crafts area is certain to be a key attraction. The Junior Jockey Fun Club will be race ready with pony rides and face painting, as well as bouncy castles and a funfair to keep the little ones entertained and not forgetting the adults there will also be live music, the stylish shopping village and of course the racing to entertain everyone!
