Undoubtedly, the best place to watch any horse racing is from the comfort of a hospitality suite. Though tickets are more expensive than what you would pay for general access, the higher price comes with a slew of luxurious conveniences which makes this the perfect way to enjoy a grand day to experience the races. Purchasing tickets is not your only way in though, here are a few ideas about how you can gain access to a hospitality suite for your next day at the races.
Be invited to the races by a corporate suite sponsor
Connections are important in the corporate world and if you play your cards right, you can be invited to some of the more prestigious events that the horse racing scene has to offer. The races can be sponsored by companies from any industry and many find this kind of sponsorship comes along with a range of business perks. Whether you are invited as a potential customer, a business partner, or an employee of the sponsoring company, experiencing a day at the races as an invited guest is one of the most convenient ways to gain access to hospitality suites.
Buy a hospitality suite package direct from the racecourse
Depending on which event you attend, you can pre-book a hospitality suite to enjoy your day in the most lavish surroundings. Whether is the esteemed Melbourne Cup, the Caulfield Cup, or the Belmont races, you can enjoy all of the events of the day with excellent food and drink from your own private balcony.
The Belmont races boast a wide array of different places to choose from ranging from outdoor picnic-type areas to the exclusive West Wing, which is located just above the finish line and is a VIP location. The amenities are second to none, with a large array of buffet food and plenty of tea, coffee, and soft drinks available while you watch your winner cross the finishing line. There is a 30-person minimum requirement to reserve this spot so send your invites out early. You can pre-book all of these locations on their website.
Become a corporate sponsor at the races of your choosing
If you have the clout in the corporate market then you can take the initiative and put your business out into the horse racing world and become a legitimate sponsor. If you are so inclined, you earn not only major advertising space but you can also rub shoulders with people who can potentially elevate your business to a level that would have been otherwise unforeseen. So get down to the races, book a hospitality suite and get yourself privy to the who’s who of the racing world to not only make friends but to help your business keep bustling.
The great thing about the horse racing scene is that there are plenty of ways that you can enjoy the races. You can sit in the stands and be in the thick of the excitement of the races or you can locate yourself on a private balcony away from the hustle and bustle that is synonymous with the horse racing experience. Whatever race you choose to attend, no matter where it is in Australia promises and delivers on a great day that will be remembered no matter how you celebrate it.
