Dubai Racing Carnival Announces New Season, $30.5M World Cup To Return
Horse racing in Dubai will return this year with bigger prizes and a longer season at the world-famous Meydan course. A new-look racing season will offer richer purses and more races for horse enthusiasts.
In line with the city’s fast-paced development and innovation, under the vision of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, Dubai Racing Club has unveiled a new structure for the 2023-2024 racing season.
The season has been transformed into a rich racing extravaganza, renamed the Dubai Racing Carnival. The move, which follows two decades of international racing in the Emirate, is marked by a big boost in prize money, which promises to attract highly competitive fields.
The Racing Carnival spans the entire season at Meydan, from November to March, giving international trainers, jockeys and horses the chance to compete in the city for much longer than was previously the case.
