Horse Racing with Core Events

A day at the races is as much about the occasion as the racing. Racecourse hospitality gives you a private lounge or enclosure away from the crowds, hosted dining timed around the card, drinks service and clear views of the action: the paddock, the run-in and the roar of the finish. Whether you’re entertaining clients, marking a special occasion or planning a summer day out, we match you to the hospitality package and enclosure that suit the meeting, your group and your budget.

From a single badge to a private box for the Grand National, and from the Cheltenham Festival in March to Glorious Goodwood in the summer, we handle every detail so your day runs beautifully.

What’s included in horse racing hospitality?

A horse racing hospitality package typically includes an admission badge or ticket to a premium enclosure, access to a private lounge, box or restaurant, hosted dining and drinks service across the day, a racecard plus reserved seating or viewing. Higher tiers add fine dining, private boxes and, at select meetings, paddock access. Exact inclusions vary by racecourse, enclosure and package.
