Dietary requirements are handled as standard tell us in advance and every guest is looked after, faultlessly.

It’s the difference between a good day out and a seamless VIP experience your guests won’t forget.

Hosting clients at sporting events: Dress code by venue

Ascot

The most formal on the calendar. The Royal Enclosure expects full formal daywear, with dress codes varying by enclosure. Hats or substantial headwear for guests; smart formalwear throughout.

Wimbledon

Smart to smart-casual for most hospitality areas. No trainers, sportswear or ripped denim in premium suites. Elegant but comfortable is the safe brief.

Twickenham

Smart casual works well for most rugby hospitality, with premium suites leaning a little smarter. Layers are wise for a stadium day.

F1 paddock

Smart casual and, above all, comfortable. Expect plenty of walking, so flat, comfortable footwear beats anything formal.

Cricket grounds

Smart casual, dressed for a long day outdoors. Sun protection, a hat and layers for changing weather are all worth having.

General events

When in doubt, smart casual is the reliable default. We’ll always confirm the exact code for your event in advance.

Client Entertainment ideas for your next event

Great client entertainment ideas UK businesses rely on come down to the small things done well. A few pointers to make your day land:

  • Send joining details early. Arrival time, venue, dress code, and what’s included so everyone turns up relaxed and knows exactly what to expect.
  • Keep the invitation warm and low-pressure. Match the event to your client’s interests, give plenty of notice, and make it feel like a shared experience, not a sales pitch.
  • A short, genuine thank-you afterwards keeps the momentum going and turns a memorable day into a lasting relationship.

Frequently Asked Questions

Corporate hospitality is premium event access designed for entertaining guests, rather than simply attending. A normal ticket gets you through the gate; hospitality adds fine dining, drinks, premium seating and dedicated event management, often with travel too. It turns a match or concert into a setting where relationships build, and guests feel properly looked after.

Packages vary by event, but most include premium seating or private suite access, fine dining, drinks and dedicated event management. Many also cover travel, transfers and accommodation, plus extras such as client gifts or branded touches. Because every package is bespoke, inclusions are shaped around your guests and objectives; your specialist confirms exactly what’s covered before you book.

Usually, yes, and it depends on the venue. Some occasions, like Royal Ascot, have formal requirements, while others simply ask for smart or smart-casual attire. Certain suites and enclosures apply their own standards. We’ll always tell you the exact code for your event in advance, so you and your guests arrive dressed appropriately and comfortably.

It varies. Ascot’s Royal Enclosure expects formal dress, so a suit and often more is appropriate. Wimbledon and Twickenham hospitality generally call for smart or smart-casual attire rather than strict formalwear, though premium suites can be dressier. Codes differ by enclosure and package, so we’ll confirm precisely what’s expected for your specific booking beforehand.

Simply arrive and enjoy. You’ll receive clear joining details in advance, including arrival times, check-in, and where to go. On the day, you’re welcomed smoothly, hosted throughout and looked after from first drink to final moment.

Absolutely. Hospitality isn’t limited to clients; many bookings include colleagues, teams, partners or family. Whether you’re rewarding staff, celebrating a milestone or mixing business with something personal, your guests are all looked after to the same standard. Just tell us who’s joining and how many, and we’ll tailor the arrangements around your group.

For major events such as Royal Ascot, Wimbledon or an F1 Grand Prix, we recommend six to twelve months ahead, as premium suites sell quickly. Smaller occasions can often be arranged with less notice. Whatever your timeline, contact us; our specialists will explore what’s available and secure the right option before demand outpaces supply.

If an event is postponed, cancelled or rescheduled, our team contacts you directly to explain your options. What’s possible depends on the event organiser’s policy and the package booked, and we manage the situation on your behalf wherever we can to minimise disruption. Full terms are confirmed at booking, so you’re always clear on where you stand.
