Where your ticket takes you

Not included

The view

Sedgefield describes private suites as overlooking the home straight. The official Fascinator listing for 18 October 2026 describes private suite views and public area access. The course map shows multiple rooms, so layout and exact position depend on your booking. Use the outdoor rails and Parade Ring for a closer view, then return to your room as an indoor base.

Food and drink

Food and drink vary by ticket. Treat an item as included only when it is listed for that package; other public outlet purchases are separate.

Fascinator

The 18 October listing describes a three-course meal, private bar and Tote betting.

Top Hat and other suites

Venue map

Shelter

A private room provides an indoor base between races.

Dress code

Sedgefield says Grandstand & Paddock is smart casual and discourages sportswear, jogging bottoms, sports shorts and football or rugby shirts; smart jeans are acceptable. Hospitality guests tend to dress smartly. Bring warm layers and shoes suitable for damp grass and the walk between indoor and outdoor areas.

Getting in

Book through Sedgefield’s official hospitality partner or contact the course office. Hospitality tickets are emailed, usually two weeks before the fixture or immediately for later bookings. Follow the suite name on your ticket and map. Gates open two hours before racing; a separate suite opening time is not published.

Accessibility

Accessible toilets and two lifts are available. Accessible parking near admissions includes five dedicated wheelchair spaces on a first-come basis. A free personal assistant ticket can be arranged by email at least 24 hours ahead. Some paths cross grass and external covered Grandstand viewing is reached via terraced steps. Sedgefield does not publish room-by-room measurements; contact the course about a named hospitality space before booking. Room-by-room measurements and step-free routes for each suite are not published. Ask about the exact room before booking.
