The Royal Box is an exclusive room within the Queen's Stand. Steeped in heritage, it is the ideal location to impress your guests with its grandeur. A private balcony looks over the finish line and it is the perfect space to give your event a different twist.

It is an ideal space for a smaller scale Office Party, Christmas Party or Dinner. The room is brilliantly suited for Cabaret, Theatre and Banquet layouts. We are more than able to cater for Corporate, Private and Charity Events.
