Fairwood Suite

The most popular suite with the view of the finishing line, on a non-raceday this is very popular with banqueting, conferencing and exhibitions. With the open plan space on the ground floor, large windows with copious amounts of natural daylight, it makes the perfect space for a large event. It can hold up to 300 guests in a dining or cabaret layout, or up to 400 theatre style, the room also has the ability to split into 2 with a wall partition, meaning it is great for conferences that need a breakout area. It has its own bar in the room, 2 sets of toilets and it has disabled access.

Sports Bar Suite

A great suite for parties or corporate conferencing, the ground floor suite being on par with the Fairwood Site in size can hold up to 300 people seated on tables or up to 500 people for a party. The room has large windows allowing in natural daylight and is also equipped with 2 bars, 2 sets of toilets and disability access.
