Ipswich Racecourse has been a thriving jurisdiction of Queensland racing since its first meeting in 1848 and continues to be utilized consistently throughout the years operating under the guise of Ipswich Turf Club in 1991.

Playing host to approximately 46 meetings throughout a calendar year, the Ipswich Turf Club is a worthwhile trip for those from the major city stables in Brisbane, located roughly 35km south-west of Eagle Farm Racecourse and Doomben Racecourse.

A boost in standing and prizemoney for Ipswich racing has proven to be a major benefit with it helping attract better talent.

The Ipswich Winter Racing Carnival providing plenty of targets for stables – including the Listed Ipswich Cup (2150m), worth $175,000.

Not only is the Ipswich Turf Club home to horse racing throughout the year, but it also provides locals with an outstanding venue to host formal and informal events, such as weddings, corporate dining, and celebrations for every occasion.

They have settings for both indoor and outdoor events, so be sure to check out the Ipswich Turf Club website for more information regarding these gatherings.

IPSWICH RACECOURSE ADDRESS & HOW TO GET THERE

Ipswich Turf Club is located at 219 Brisbane Rd, Bundamba QLD 4304 and is approximately 35.6km from the Brisbane CBD.

With plenty of action at Ipswich Racecourse throughout the year, many racegoers will be looking to venture to the south-west of the major city as a spectator. So, here’s the fastest way to arrive at your destination to avoid traffic congestion.

Head south along the A7 for roughly 6.8km before getting onto the M7 at Rocklea. Take the M7 further south-west for 20.6km and exit onto the M2 to Brisbane Rd in Dinmore. Look for exit 33 from the National Highway, and from there, simply follow Brisbane Rd until you arrive at your destination.

The entrance of the course is located at T L Cooney Ave, where ample parking for both racegoers and participants is widely available. Regularly scheduled buses are also available if you’d rather leave the car at home, with Roma Street Station buses departing on an hourly rotation.

Locals have the option to drive, taxi, or uber, with many patrons making their way from the Ipswich CBD, located approximately 4.7km west of the Ipswich Turf Club.

Be sure to plan accordingly so you don’t miss all the action, with most meetings scheduled to get underway between 11am-1pm local time.


Ipswich racecourse and starting points

Ipswich Racecourse is run in a clockwise direction, with a circumference of 1,746m and a home straight of 300m, traditionally making it a track suited to on-speed gallopers.

Being such a tight-turning race track, the course proper has many chute starting positions, with the 1100m, 1200m, and 1350m all disengaging from a chute position located at the north-west side of the course in relation to the grandstand.

The 2150m starting point for the Ipswich Cup also has a chute position on the south-east side of the course, with horses passing the winning post on two occasions.
