The Newcastle International Paceway has been the setting for some sizzling performances and race results showing that most horses produce their best times when stepping out onto this spacious track. It is the only track in Australia starting 10 horses off the front in Mobile events and its design provides all horses an equal opportunity to win.
We conduct 79 race meetings per year, making us one of the busiest clubs in Australia. Our meetings are run on Saturday night's and Thursday afternoons plus a non TAB meeting on Melbourne Cup day. The Newcastle Mile, run in November, and the Newcastle Cup, run in December, are our two biggest meetings of the year.
Located in the sporting heart of Newcastle at the International Sports Centre, we are only 8 kilometres from the CBD, a 10 minute walk from Broadmeadow railway station, and on major bus routes. Newcastle is approximately 160 kilometres north of Sydney and is renowned for its fabulous beaches and surrounding attractions such as Port Stephens and the wonderful Hunter Valley vineyards.
