Cheltenham Festival Hospitality – Frequently Asked Questions

When is the Cheltenham Festival 2027?

Cheltenham Festival 2027 will take place at Cheltenham Racecourse from Tuesday 16th to Friday 19th March. The Festival features 4 days of pulsating National Hunt racing, culminating with the prestigious Cheltenham Gold Cup on the Friday. 

What is included in a Cheltenham hospitality package?

Most packages include a club enclosure admission ticket, a reserved table for the day, a champagne or cocktail reception, a multi-course lunch, afternoon tea, a complimentary bar, and racing newspapers/tote betting facilities. For more details about all of our Cheltenham packages, head to our Cheltenham Hospitality page.

Is there a dress code for Cheltenham VIP areas?

While Cheltenham famously does not have a strict “enforced” dress code, the hospitality areas generally see guests in smart attire. Gentlemen usually wear suits or tweed blazers, while ladies opt for hats and elegant winter racing wear. Wednesday, known as Ladies Day, sees guests wear their finest attire, with the hopes of winning the day’s Best Dressed competitions for over £10,000 in prizes.

Can I book private boxes for large groups?

Yes. VIP Matchdays offers private boxes for groups of 12 to 20+ guests, perfect for corporate networking or celebrating with friends. These boxes provide a private balcony overlooking the final two fences for the best views of the course.

When is the best time to book Cheltenham hospitality?

As soon as possible. Because the Cheltenham Festival is a global event, the best suites and restaurants sell out incredibly quickly. We recommend booking at least 6-9 months in advance to avoid disappointment.

How do I receive my tickets?

Digital tickets and hospitality badges are typically dispatched via secure post 1-2 weeks before the event. Guests are also able to access their ticket of admission via the official Cheltenham app.
