Facilitie and hospitality at York Races
Some hospitality areas offer unique locations
that might well suit your raceday. Their availability is limited
so please enquire.
Melrose Stand
For many distinguished racehorse
owners this modern stand is at the heart of the action affording
splendid views of the track as well as easy access to the
Parade Ring.
The stand has 27 boxes spread over three
floors are usually used as Annual Rentals however, the Race
Committee have decided to retain some for daily usage. Every
box has its own balcony and comes fully furnished including
TV. There are exclusive Tote betting points and toilets on
each floor.
The Knavesmire Stand
This stand was opened in 1996 with York racegoers finding
it so popular that most boxes are repeat booked year on year.
From here you will have a breathtaking
view across the course. From your private balconies, the boxes
are ideal places to host first time racegoers and to relax
into a day of quality racing.
Sponsors Suite
When this box has a great
view of the finish and that remains a key benefit of this
unique location that has enjoyed a recent refurbishment.
This box offers the crescendo of excitement
as runners flash past its open balcony; if you missed them
live then watch the repeat on the York Raceday Television
which is provided, before collecting your Tote winnings
upstairs.
Marquee
This provides a private dining for larger groups which
can also be combined to cater for conferences and exhibitions
with an afternoon of racing.
It is provided, fully furnished with boarded
and carpeted floor, entrance lobby and patio doors as well
as full York Raceday Television coverage of racing and dedicated
Tote betting facilities.

As well as the savings on admission, racegoers
taking advantage of this popular scheme also receive money
off a Tote Exacta bet valued at £5 or more.

both less than two hours from York Racecourse.
