Organisers said: "We jump straight back into action with a cracking meeting that has something for everybody - the Season Opener is the perfect place to kick start your Jump season.

"With novice races, Mares events, and even something for the conditional jockeys, it really is time to see new talent unearthed and old standards raised higher."

3. Dragon Boat Festival

The Warwick Dragon Boat Festival is set to return this September, raising money for two local children's charities.

Rotary Club of Warwick Avon is bringing back its popular community event on Sunday September 24, with up to 26 boats set to hit the River Avon.

Each boat will have up to 16 paddlers and a drummer, with many of the teams coming kitted out in fancy dress.

Heats will see two boats race along the 200 metre course, and every team will take part in at least three races.

The four fastest teams will then battle it out to be crowned the winners.
