Like me, you may have been to London many times, but have you ever been to the dog races in London? If you fancy a bet, and a few laughs make your way to the Coral Romford Greyhound Stadium.
Wimbledon Greyhound Stadium
After 89 years the famous Wimbledon Greyhound Stadium closed its doors in 2017. It was the most renowned venue for dog races in England and hosted the annual Greyhound Derby.
Dog Races in London
There are still a few places to see a few dog races in London and several in other cities across the UK. If you’re in London in August you could attend the annual Omni Epsom Downs Terrier Derby. This charity event sees about 40 small dogs (not just terriers) racing in groups of 4 across the track. It is a family-friendly event and lots of fun.
Coral Romford Stadium
