Reefton Races - Reefton Racecourse

All races are features with a dress rug presented to all winners. The raceday provides a picnic day out for locals and visitors and barbecue foods are available. Admission to the course is free.

Formed in July 1877, the Club held its first meetings at Fern Flat, Waitaha, and shifted to its present course in 1879.

The original grandstand was built in 1913. In 1967 the Club purchased the former Monteith's Brewery property, which became the main stabling yards and car park. In 1982 a sports complex was built at the course.
