Traveling to Us

Aintree Racecourse is located on the A59, just one mile from the M57 and M58, which link the M62 and M6. Follow the A59 to Liverpool and the AA brown racecourse signs as you approach the racecourse.

If you are coming from the M57/M58, please follow Ormskirk Road (A59), past Asda, McDonalds and the Industrial Estate. Please take the left turn at the traffic lights for the racecourse, just after KFC and by The Rocking Horse Pub. To enter the racecourse, go underneath the barriers, turn left at the mini roundabout for the Equestrian Centre and right if you are heading to the Stables first.
