The Arc was a greyhound racing competition held at Swindon Stadium. It was inaugurated in 1987 at Walthamstow Stadium[1] but when the track closed in 2008 the event switched to Swindon.[2]
In 2018, Swindon announced that the event would be staged at a different time due to building work but this never materialised and the competition came to an end.[3]
