To celebrate the upcoming “Cathedral Square Goes to The Races” event, bringing Ladies’ Day to the streets of the Square on Saturday, June 6th, 2026, Cathedral Square invites visitors to take part in a week-long Golden Horseshoe Hunt. Starting Tuesday, May 26th, 2026, during the May half-term, hidden golden horseshoes will be scattered throughout the square for eagle-eyed visitors to discover.

Participating is simple: visitors are encouraged to explore Cathedral Square, and its venues on the High Street, Pump Street, and College Street to locate the hidden treasures. Once a golden horseshoe is found, it can be taken to a participating store to claim a prize.

To help hunters on their quest, Cathedral Square will be sharing exclusive clues and competition hints via their social media channels:

  • Facebook: @cathedralsqworc

Lucky winners will have the chance to secure a variety of premium prizes from popular local businesses and brands. The treasure trove of rewards includes:

  • Dining & Treats: Vouchers from Popeyes and Five Guys gift boxes from Hotel Chocolat, sharing platters from All Bar One, and vouchers from Muffin Break and Coffee#1.

Holly Wood, Operations Assistant for Martin Commercial Properties Limited, said:

“We’re excited to bring the Golden Horseshoe Hunt to Cathedral Square as it’s a fantastic opportunity for all our tenants to come together and be part of something fun, engaging, and community-focused.

Events like this help drive footfall across the whole Square, encourage visitors to explore businesses they may not have visited before, and create a real buzz ahead of our ‘Cathedral Square Goes to The Races’ event.

It’s a great way for tenants to showcase what they offer while being involved in an experience that brings people into the city centre during the half-term period.”

The Golden Horseshoe Hunt serves as the perfect warm-up for the main event, “Cathedral Square Goes to The Races,” taking place on Saturday, June 6th, 2026. This upcoming celebration promises a day of racing-themed fun, community spirit, and high-energy entertainment for all visitors.

Don’t miss your chance to join the hunt, win incredible prizes, and prepare for a fantastic day at the races.
