Qatar Airways saddles up its horses and prepares for another chapter of Qatar Goodwood Festival, in partnership with Qatar Racing and Equestrian Club (QREC). National guests of Qatar in London are invited to attend this year’s edition of the prestigious race in Goodwood Racecourse from 01 – 05 August, 2023.

Enhanced with the charm of English countryside, Qatar Goodwood Festival is sponsored by Qatar Airways for the fifth time this summer. The airline is excited to welcome local horses and riders into one of the most prominent equestrian events.

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, Akbar Al Baker, said: “It brings us great pleasure to showcase our country’s admiration for this noble sport by sponsoring the Qatar Goodwood Festival. Horseracing is embedded in our fibre, as it is a symbol of our history, passion and national culture. This festival brings a fusion of tradition and glamour, enhanced by adrenaline that is suitable for all racegoers. I wish all participants of the equestrian races the best of luck.”

Horseracing has been part of Goodwood since 1802 when the 3rd Duke of Richmond introduced the sport. Today, there are 19 unique race days including the Qatar Goodwood Festival.

The Amir Sword Festival and the Qatar International Derby.
