Cheltenham Gold Cup 2026 Hospitality Packages & Festival Guide
The Gold Cup: The Pinnacle of Jump Racing
Experience the “Cheltenham Roar”
The video above captures the moment history was made in 2024. But TV cameras cannot capture the “Cheltenham Roar”—the noise that erupts from the stands when the starter tape rises. It is a bucket-list moment for any sports fan.
However, the crowds at Cheltenham are immense (70,000+ people). Navigating the Guinness Village and finding a view can be a battle. That is why Official Hospitality is not just a luxury; it is a logistical necessity.
- The Sanctuary: Escape the madness of the public bars. Our facilities offer private betting terminals and table service, so you never miss a race queuing for a drink.
- The View: Jump racing is best viewed from a height. Our Long Run Balcony packages give you a panoramic view of the finish line and the sprawling Cotswold hills.
- The Craic: Cheltenham is about the social atmosphere. Facilities like The Orchard offer a “VIP Nightclub” vibe right at the racecourse.
