Shared Trackside Pavilion Experience Includes:
Enjoy one of the highlights of the British flat racing season with our official Newmarket July Festival hospitality packages for 2027. Held at the iconic Newmarket Racecourse, this three-day festival combines elite racing with exceptional hospitality, making it one of the standout sporting and social occasions of the summer.
Staged on Newmarket’s famous July Course, the Festival features world-class racing across all three days, culminating in the prestigious Group One Darley July Cup. As part of both the British Champions Series and the Global Sprint Challenge, the July Cup attracts many of the world’s leading sprinters and consistently delivers thrilling finishes.
The Newmarket July Festival has been a fixture of the racing calendar since 1876 and has built a rich heritage over almost 150 years. The inaugural July Cup was won by Springfield, a colt bred by Queen Victoria, who successfully defended his title the following year. Since then, the race has been won by some of the sport’s greatest champions and remains one of the most sought-after sprint prizes in international racing.
The Festival takes place at Newmarket Racecourse, widely recognised as the home of British horseracing. Racing has been held here since 1667, and the venue boasts a remarkable history, including King Charles II becoming the first reigning monarch to ride a race winner when he won the Newmarket Town Plate in 1671.
Recent editions of the July Cup have continued to showcase the highest level of competition. In 2025, No Half Measures produced a memorable victory under jockey Neil Callan for trainer Richard Hughes, narrowly holding off Big Mojo and Run To Freedom in a thrilling finish.
The Newmarket July Festival returns in 2027 for another three days of outstanding racing, entertainment and summer hospitality.
There is no better way to enjoy every moment of the Festival than with an Eventmasters VIP Hospitality Package. Whether you’re entertaining clients, rewarding colleagues or celebrating with family and friends, our premium experiences combine exceptional dining, first-class service and superb views of the racing for an unforgettable day at Newmarket.
As part of the Newmarket hospitality experience, the Trackside Shared Pavilion provides racegoers with the perfect garden party environment and the ultimate fine dining experience. Guests can also enjoy a tasty four course set meal and access the Trackside Shared Pavilion Champagne reception.
To help you plan your visit to the July Festival, we’ve also provided our Newmarket Sample Menu to give you a taste of what to expect with our Trackside Shared Pavilion hospitality.
