2019 has a vast number of exciting sporting events to get involved in. Plus the fact that the popularity in gambling continues to grow, you can expect many to be busy getting involved over the upcoming year, such as using the bonus offer that is available. Here we cover three of the most popular events to gamble on in 2019
• Cheltenham festival
An extremely popular sporting event each year is the Cheltenham festival, which takes place in the second week of March. It is the key fixture in the national hunt season and is also one of the biggest gambling events for punters. This is why bookmakers put a huge amount of advertisement into it, which has continued this year. There are now so many great offers for punters across the four days, so it is worth shopping around for the different bonuses on offer.
The Cheltenham festival has a number of horses that look banker material this time around in the likes of Paisley Park, Tiger Roll and Sir Erec. This means it could also be a fixture for the punters, which is usually not the case.
• Grand National
Another horse racing event that brings about so many different walks of life to watch the race. This of course being the Grand National that takes place at the start of April, and just a few weeks after Cheltenham, in what is a fantastic period for racing fans. It is estimated that around 500 to 600 million people watch the race each year from over 140 countries around the world. This just shows the huge popularity of the race.
The Grand National is also possibly the most gambling on single event in the world, with both regular and one time punters getting involved. Tiger Roll will be looking to defend his crown in the race following his impressive display last season. He has returned better than ever, so can be expected to go close, in becoming the first horse to back up in the race since Red Rum in 1974.

• Rugby World Cup
The next edition of the Rugby World Cup is taking place later this year in Japan, in what is set to be a hugely popular event. Punters have already been busy getting involved in which New Zealand are set to go off the short priced favourites. This is no surprise considering they have been the dominating force in the sport for some time. New Zealand have also heading in having won the two previous world cup’s, so will be a popular selection for many to again lift the trophy.
