Breakfast with a Side of Horse Racing: Morning Magic at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth

There’s something undeniably special about gathering trackside with fellow racing fans while champion racehorses stretch their legs—and Breakfast Gallops at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth delivers exactly that.

Taking place on Thursday, 22 January, this relaxed and social event invites guests to enjoy good food, great company and uninterrupted views of top-class thoroughbreds in training.

From 08h00 onwards, attendees are welcomed into the elegant 1881 Lounge, where a light breakfast buffet awaits, complete with freshly brewed coffee and, naturally, mimosas. The vibe is easy-going yet exciting, with the balcony offering prime views of the track as the horses complete their gallops just metres away.

  • On the turf, the action unfolds as horses fine-tune their preparations for the season ahead. Guests can spot potential standouts and future stars—some on the road to the World Sports Betting Cape Town Met and other major features in 2026—making this a must for racing enthusiasts and curious newcomers alike.

Best of all, entrance is free and everyone is welcome, making Breakfast Gallops an effortless outing for anyone who loves a sociable setting paired with sporting theatre. A simple RSVP is required (justine@racecoast.co.za or WhatsApp 071 012 0486.) to assist with catering and you can arrive ready to sip, snack and soak up the atmosphere at one of Cape Town’s most iconic racing venues.
