OLBG Prizes has launched a fresh competition offering a pair of premium Owners’ Club tickets to Newbury’s Dubai Duty Free International Weekend on Saturday 19 September. It’s one of those standout fixture dates that defines the racecourse calendar.

What Winners Get

The prize delivers genuine trackside hospitality. Both the main winner and a guest gain full Owners’ Club access, which includes dedicated bar and restaurant facilities, a terrace area, and reserved seating on the Berkshire and Hampshire Stands. Lunch is sorted, parking is reserved in Car Park 2, and there’s no queuing around when you arrive.

For racing fans, this is the kind of experience that doesn’t normally come cheap. The access alone would cost serious money if purchased separately.

How the Competition Works

Entries cost 99p each. The closing date is Wednesday 29 July at 5:00 PM, and only 500 tickets are available, which keeps the odds genuinely competitive for a prize of this calibre.

OLBG has built in five instant win Premier Admission pairs as well. So some entrants will know straight away whether they’ve landed a secondary prize when they buy their ticket. Each entry also gives you a shot at the main Owners’ Club draw.

There’s a postal entry route too if you’d rather go that way. Either method gives you one chance into the draw, with ticket numbers allocated randomly at purchase.

The Raceday Itself

September 19th is a proper day out. Newbury’s running a seven-race card headlined by the Group 2 Dubai Duty Free Mill Reef Stakes and the Group 3 Dubai International Airport World Trophy. There’s also live DJ entertainment and extended bar service once the racing finishes, courtesy of Pump Technology’s Sunset Sessions.

This follows OLBG Prizes’ earlier Newbury Owners’ Club giveaway, and frankly, the feedback suggests demand for this kind of hospitality experience is strong. For the price of a decent coffee, gaining access to what’s genuinely one of the better viewing experiences at any UK racecourse is solid value by any measure.

What the team thinks

Sheena McAllister says:

While OLBG Prizes’ promotional approach here is straightforward and consumer-friendly, I’d have welcomed more transparency around the competition’s terms, entry mechanics, and how they’re managing responsible gambling messaging within what’s clearly a high-value incentive scheme. From a compliance perspective, prize promotions of this calibre sit in a nuanced regulatory space where the UKGC expects operators to balance engaging marketing with clear, upfront information about eligibility and responsible gambling safeguards, so it’s worth noting whether those elements are sufficiently prominent in the full competition details. That said, the shift toward experiences-based prizes rather than pure cash giveaways does align well with modern consumer preferences and demonstrates the industry’s creative thinking around customer engagement.
