Cheltenham National Hunt Festival 2010 Review

This year Cheltenham will be in its seventh year as a four-day festival in the elegant spa town, which plays host to visitors from all over the world. The festival is without doubt one of the great corporate hospitality occasions of the season as around 500 horses competing for in excess of £3.4 million in prize money.

The Cheltenham Festival produces an atmosphere that is unique. The combination of the huge crowds, the amazing setting and the sense that you are watching history being made produces a sporting cocktail like no other. Partnered with Hospitalityfinder, you can join us with one of our exclusive Cheltenham corporate hospitality packages and ensure you're part of this legendary event.

An estimated 250,000 spectators attend the four days of the Festival, especially popular with the Irish race goers, who love taking on Cheltenham's bookmakers in their annual pilgrimage to the Gloucestershire countryside. The National Hunt Festival is one of the biggest corporate events and with up to £600 million staked on the 26 races that make up the Cheltenham Festival, it’s clear to see that they are among the most prestigious and competitive horse races run anywhere in the world.

With the climax to the week being the Cheltenham Gold Cup on Friday, other highlights include Tuesday's Champion Hurdle, Wednesday's Queen Mother Champion’s Chase and the World Hurdle on Thursday. On the opening day, the traditional “Cheltenham roar” can be heard and signals the start of the festival as well as the crowd’s exhilaration at the drama that lies ahead.

Our Official Hospitality facilities provide the perfect platform to entertain clients over these four magical days in March, when the whole racing community converges on Cheltenham racecourse for the showpiece event of National Hunt racing.
