About Epsom Downs Racecourse

A truly historic venue, Epsom Downs has hosted Derby Festival since 1780. The racecourse is a popular filming destination and can host hundreds of guests for all kinds of events. Just outside London, the venue is easily accessible by car or train and has its own on-site hotel for those who wish to stay. The award-winning catering serves up delicious dishes for the guests, whether for an intimate dinner or a 1000-person banquet. The team here are extremely well-versed in hosting and will ensure any enquiry is handled with expert care.

For more intimate meetings, the private boxes are ideal, offering convenient breakout rooms and full AV equipment. The various suites, meanwhile, are a little larger, able to host not just meetings and conferences, but also dinners, receptions and private parties. The Derby Suite, for example, is a modern space with floor-to-ceiling windows that provide a stunning view of the Downs.

At the heart of the venue lies Oaks Hall, a spacious blank canvas area which has hosted everything from Bar Mitzvahs to boxing matches. Its primary use, however, is consumer and trade exhibitions. Thanks to its open access and ground floor location, it is well placed for even the most ambitious event builds.

Aside from events and parties, Epsom Downs is also well versed in team-building activities. The venue works with a range of fun teambuilding suppliers, offering everything from archery to orienteering. The catering team are well equipped to host barbecues and picnics, perfect for dining in the sun after a day of organised fun.

The award-winning catering here uses local and seasonal produce wherever possible, offering set menus of up to five courses. Canapes are also available for standing receptions. Start planning your event or party today by filling in the enquiry form on the right. The team will then be in touch to help in any way they can.
