Carlisle Racecourse Hospitality Packages

Horse racing in the historic border city of Carlisle dates back to at least the 16th century, and some are of the opinion that it may even date back to Norse times. With National Hunt racing from October to April, and Flat racing from May to August, Carlisle Racecourse offers year round racing.

2009 marks the 105th year of horse racing at this racecourse. With the new Jubilee Grandstand and overall reinvestment, Carlisle can boast one of the premier hospitality venues in the north-west of England.

PRIVATE BOXES (Minimum of 20 guests)
The superb private boxes on the second floor of the Jubilee Grandstand offer groups the ideal opportunity to enjoy a great day at the races - in the height of luxury. Each box has its own private balcony viewing, CCTV and uniformed staff to service the box. Choose from one of the following packages.
