Ascot Racecourse announces a new private hospitality facility, catering for up to 70 guests, with superb views of the racing action
Ascot Racecourse has recently created a very special hospitality facility, suitable for groups of between 30 to 70 guests. The ‘Quad Box’ (Box 316-319) is located on Level 3 of the Grandstand, 50 metres from the winning post, and will seat up to 40 people for a silver service meal or accommodate up to 70 for a buffet. It has a large private dining area with private bar facilities, as well as private cloakrooms for ladies and gentlemen. A special feature of the box is the inclusion of a sliding partitioned wall between the main room and Box 319, enabling Box 319 to become a separate meeting room if required or to be fully integrated into the dining area.
This unique facility is available on either a box hire basis or on a package basis. Details can be found below.
