White Horse Meet
13/06/2024 - 15/06/2024
Thirsk Racecourse, Newsham Road, North Yorkshire
What's this? The White Horse moved again to June? Yes, that's right! The venue is so popular that we could only book for June in and around all the other event there, and balloon events around the country. Same venue as usual. Thirsk Racecourse horsebox park, off Newsham Road. This is one of the longest running meets in our calendar, (2025 will be our 26th visit!) and we have great pleasure in inviting everyone along to take part in the fun and friendly rivalry with the pilots trying their luck to win the White Horse trophy. As before, we have the usual well-drained camping and launch area. REGISTRATION BY 07/05/2024 PLEASE All on-site overnight stays must be pre-booked and paid for please.
