The Deepbridge Polo Series is back at Chester Racecourse this week – and with an exciting new theme: POLOFEST!

The event, taking place across two days, is hosting a fun-filled occasion for families on Saturday (24 June), with all the fast-paced polo action plus a range of fabulous activities for children, including:

  • Make your own festival style headband
  • Glitter and Tattoo station
  • Painting with bubbles
  • Make and do activities
  • DJ
  • Paper disco
  • Garden Games
  • Giant colouring wall
  • Giant Volleyball

The event has something for everyone and is now FREE to attend for children aged 17 and under with a paying adult. Dogs are more than welcome, too!

Chester Polo Club has become a highlight of the Cheshire social scene as enthusiastic crowds flock to enjoy an afternoon of sport and vibrancy with great entertainment, food and drink for all the family.

Guests are welcomed to the Roodee to mingle and enjoy an atmosphere like no other during the great British summer.

Fierce competition is always anticipated from the worthiest contenders all fighting for the prestigious Deepbridge Polo Series silverware, with the title awarded in a Laurent Perrier Champagne-soaked presentation.

Steve Davies, Chief Operating Officer at Chester Racecourse, said:

“The Deepbridge Polo Series promises to be an amazing day out for all the family, combining the thrill of watching live polo with an array of fantastic POLOFEST activities for children. It’s an opportunity to witness outstanding play and sportsmanship in an environment that brings everybody together to create long-lasting memories.

“Our decision to extend free child admission up to the age of 17 means that we can now enhance our offering for families and provide a great value day out for those new to the sport or returning to the Roodee for a fun-filled day of entertainment.”

General admission tickets for adults to attend the Deepbridge Polo Series on Saturday are priced at £10 in advance, or £15 on the day.

Hospitality packages are also available on both days of the tournament, Friday and Saturday, offering an extra special VIP experience.

Gates open at 12pm for hospitality and 1pm for POLOFEST, with the polo matches getting underway from 2.30pm.
