Clan Cancer Support is betting on the glamour and thrill of the races coming to Peterhead for a new fundraising event in 2025, with all proceeds supporting people in the local area who are impacted by cancer.
The Day at the Races event will take place from 2pm on Saturday, March 1, at The Palace Hotel on Prince Street, Peterhead, and will include a drinks reception, two-course meal and entertainment from DJ Jasper.
Guests will have the opportunity to bet and win on horse races shown throughout the event and are encouraged to dress to impress with prizes available for the best race day outfits and headwear for males and females.
There will also be an opportunity to take part in fundraising games, an exclusive raffle and auction, all raising vital funds for Clan.
Lisa Barnard, Clan Cancer Support’s head of income generation, said: “For the past two years we’ve hosted our popular north lunch event at The Palace Hotel and for 2025 we’re back with something a little bit different for the Blue Toon.
“We want to bring a race day experience to the people of Peterhead and the great news is that because it’s all being held at The Palace Hotel, there’s no need to worry about the weather!
“We are incredibly grateful for all the support from the Peterhead community and look forward to welcoming guests next year for what we’re sure will be a day to remember.”
