Silks FAQs – Cheltenham Festival:
What views can me and my guests enjoy whilst enjoying hospitality at Silks?
Silks is not only a superb base for your day at the Cheltenham Festival, it is also, without any doubt, our flagship hospitality facility at this iconic event, which includes its much-anticipated return in 2026.
It gives you panoramic views of your surroundings, with you being able to enjoy views of the final fences, the finishing straight, as well as the Cleeve Hills as well at Cheltenham Racecourse on any of the four days.
What are the prices for the Silks VIP Hospitality at the Cheltenham Festival?
The prices for our Silks VIP Hospitality Package for the 2026 Cheltenham Festival will, of course, depend on the day you wish to attend with your guests/clients. Prices for the event next year in 2026 start at £729 per person plus VAT, which is for Ladies Day, which is set to take place on Wednesday 11th March 2026.
Below are all of the prices for each day at the Cheltenham Festival:

Does Silks have a dress code?
No, there is no formal dress code, but you are advised to wear formal clothing – for example, male guests often opt to wear a collared shirt and tie. Fancy dress is NOT permitted in the hospitality facility, the restaurant facilities, or indeed in the Club Enclosure.
It is, however, permitted in other areas of the racecourse as long as it is not offensive. It is also advised to wrap up warm, though this is, of course, weather dependent.
