Princess Royal Restaurant  – Grand National 2027 – Aintree Racecourse Corporate Hospitality
The Grand National is one of the most highly-anticipated events in the sporting calendar, with the blue riband Grand National Steeple Chase widely considered the ultimate test of stamina and skill for horse and jockey.
Thursday is the Opening Day of action at Aintree, before it is then followed by the highly prestigious Ladies Day on the Friday before the enthralling action then comes to a close with Grand National Day on the Saturday, which of course features the famous Grand National Handicap race each year.
Ladies Day on Friday attracts a plethora of fans to Aintree Racecourse each year, and it is set to be no different in April 2027. It is a day that is known for the finery, luxury, and great fashion that is on display, as well as the superb racing involving some of the best horses, jockeys, and trainers in the business throughout the day.
The most prestigious races of Ladies Day, the JLT Melling Chase, the Mildmay Novices’ Chase, and finally the Topham Chase will all return next year. They were won most recently by the likes of Grey Dawning, Gold Dancer, and Will The Wise back in 2026.
There’s an atmosphere at the Grand National that can’t be replicated anywhere else, and Eventmasters is delighted to provide guests with the opportunity to experience this illustrious event in VIP style.
Located in the impressive Princess Royal Stand, the Princess Royal Restaurant at Aintree is the perfect place to entertain guests or friends alike.
