Grand National tickets 2027
Last Updated 5 days ago | By The GrandNational.org.uk StaffThe Grand National Festival returns to Aintree on Thursday 8th April 2027, with three days of jump racing building towards the main event on Saturday 10th April. If you’d rather be trackside than watching at home, Grand National tickets for 2027 are worth looking at now.
2027 Grand National ticket prices and availability
Grand National tickets are now readily available and, as you can see, a significant number of stands and enclosures have already sold out for Grand National day itself. Each section offers something a bit different, from a spot near the parade ring to a seat with a view of the finish.
It’s also worth booking ahead rather than turning up and paying on the day. A change to Aintree’s pricing policy at the 2026 Festival pushed up the cost of some tickets bought at the gate, so buying in advance is the cheaper option.
What you pay depends on which day you go, too. Opening day on the Thursday is generally the most affordable, Ladies Day on the Friday costs a little more, and Grand National day itself is the priciest of the three. Whether you’re after the Saturday or simply want to see the famous fences up close, you can find the latest 2027 Grand National ticket availability right here.

2027 Grand National Thursday tickets
Thursday opens the Festival and sets the tone for the weekend. Grand National Thursday is a strong card in its own right, headlined by the Aintree Hurdle and the Randox Foxhunters’ Chase, with the latter offering a chance to see amateur riders tackle the famous National fences.
It’s the cheapest of the three days, too. Thursday tickets start at £34, so it’s an affordable way to get a feel for Aintree before the crowds build.
2027 Grand National Ladies Day tickets
Friday is Ladies Day, when the racecourse turns into as much a fashion event as a sporting one. Suits, heels, hats and fascinators all come out for #FabulousFriday, with the Red Rum Garden at the centre of things as the fashion ambassadors pick their winner of the Style Award.
The racing holds its own alongside it. The Melling Chase brings together some of the season’s best two-mile chasers, while the Topham Chase is run over the National fences and always draws a crowd.
2027 Grand National tickets
Saturday is the day the whole Festival builds towards. The Grand National is the biggest jump race in the calendar, watched by millions worldwide, and its history and its fences need little introduction. Thirty obstacles, a marathon trip and a field that rarely runs to script. It’s worth seeing in person at least once.
