Automatically Updating a Database

Say for instance, at a certain time I would like a certain script to be run, how would I go about doing this? I'm making a game where someone can enter a horse show, and it has a certain date that it will be run. On that date and time, how can I have the horse show run so that it updates across all the pages? (for instance, the horse's page that was entered, the login page, the show page, ect.)

Thanks!
