Private Grandstand Box – Cheltenham Showcase Meeting

Private Grandstand Box Hospitality at the William Hill Showcase 2026

The William Hill Showcase marks the return of jump racing to Cheltenham Racecourse, opening the 2026/27 season with two days of competitive action on Friday 23rd and Saturday 24th October 2026. For guests looking to experience the opening meeting from their own exclusive hospitality space, a Private Grandstand Box provides an impressive setting for entertaining clients, colleagues, family or friends.

Located on Level 4 of Cheltenham’s Grandstand, the Private Grandstand Boxes combine privacy and premium hospitality with excellent views of the racing. Each box features its own balcony overlooking the Winning Line, allowing guests to step outside and experience the atmosphere of Cheltenham while retaining a comfortable private base throughout the day.

The hospitality experience includes Club admission badges, reserved car parking at a ratio of one space per two guests, morning coffee and biscuits on arrival and a four-course luncheon. Guests can also enjoy a complimentary bar serving beers, wines and soft drinks, together with a souvenir racecard and television screens showing the racing throughout the day.

Private Grandstand Boxes are available for a minimum of 12 guests and can accommodate parties of up to 18, making them particularly well suited to corporate entertaining and group celebrations. The combination of private dining, dedicated space and direct access to a balcony overlooking the racing provides a very different experience from Cheltenham’s shared restaurant hospitality options.

Whether you are welcoming important clients, rewarding colleagues or celebrating a special occasion with family and friends, a Private Grandstand Box provides an exclusive way to experience the atmosphere and racing of the William Hill Showcase at the Home of Jump Racing.
