Plumpton sells two public enclosure tickets. Grandstand & Paddock includes the main facilities and access to the Village when it is open; a Village ticket is a lower-cost, centre-course option on selected fixtures and does not include the Grandstand or Parade Ring. Restaurants and private boxes are separate pre-booked hospitality experiences and include an admission ticket.
