This is the most affordable way to enjoy what racing at Cheltenham has to offer and is tremendous value for money.
The enclosure is positioned opposite the main Grandstand, providing an excellent view of the racing and top-class betting facilities, bars and a variety of food choices.
Arguably the best of its type at any British racecourse, it's ideal for the novice racegoers who are eager to enjoy the atmosphere and keep an eye on the pennies. Please note, with this enclosure you have no access to the Pre-Parade and Parade Ring, and Shopping Village.
With a Best Mate ticket, you may only enter the racecourse through the Best Mate gates located at the South of the site. During The Festival™, Party in the Pavilion acts as the enclosure's own live music venue with DJs and bands throughout the week.
