Ascot Racecourse

Venue Review of Ascot Racecourse

Following the completion of the spectacular redevelopment of the world’s most famous racecourse in 2006, Ascot has established itself as a state-of-the-art business, event & entertainment venue. It has over 300 meeting & dining rooms capable of holding from 10 to 3,000 people. The impressive Grandstand cuts a bold silhouette against the skyline & the striking design is followed through in every aspect of its light, contemporary interior. While Ascot’s distinguished heritage is one of its main attractions, the ‘can-do’ attitude of the forward-thinking team means that the venue holds some surprisingly unconventional events too. Catering is a particular strong suit, with the quality of food up to restaurant standard. The Bessborough Restaurant is notoriously good, which is where the annual fashion show is held at Royal Ascot. During the summer months, a triple-decker marquee for up to 1,500 people is available for hire. Ascot is situated in beautiful Berkshire countryside but is only 50 minutes by train from London Waterloo. The Pavilion facility, the racecource's largest stand-alone structure, is also available for private hire, which can hold 3,000 guests.
