Ffos Las is offering tickets to selected races, available on a first come first

Ffos Las has brought back top class racing to West Wales for the first time since
1937. You can find us at the heart of Carmarthenshire between the towns Llanelli and
Carmarthen, and near the city of Swansea. The 60 acre setting is magnifi-
cent. Surrounded by rolling hills and countryside and have views down the Gwendra-
eth Valley to Carmarthen Bay. It is almost impossible to believe that Ffos Las was the
former site of the largest open cast coalmine in Europe.
One of the main focal points here at Ffos Las has to be our amazing sculpture. Situ-
ated in front of the Winners Enclosure, the Spirit of the Race sculpture provides the
perfect meeting place as well as a great photo opportunity for all racegoers.
