An impressive, flexible, stylish and unique conference and events venue in the heart of East Anglia.

For over 350 years Newmarket Racecourses has been synonymous with horse racing's classic events. Our Millennium Grandstand, located at the heart of the East of England, is an impressive venue, with a stunning backdrop of the Heath. The picturesque site offers modern indoor facilities, flexible meeting rooms, stylish banqueting suites, spacious exhibition halls, beautiful outdoor spaces and ample free parking. Just a few miles from Cambridge, the Rowley Mile benefits from swift and easy access thanks to its proximity to the A11 and A14.

17 days a year the Rowley Mile transforms into a world class racecourse offering fantastic sponsorship opportunities, luxury hospitality and fine dining experiences and group bookings. For the remainder of the year it is available for large scale conferences for up to 500 delegates, consumer and trade exhibitions, business meetings, interactive team building events, product launches, private parties - and in December, our renowned Christmas party nights.

It is a location which lends itself to any event and always offers a very special sense of occasion, thanks to the racecourse environment and its inextricable links to sporting excellence and royal history.
We have a highly experienced Conference and Events team who will help plan and accommodate your event needs to the highest level. Working with our trusted suppliers and our in-house catering team we will ensure your experience of hosting an event at Newmarket Racecourses is of exceptional quality.

The Royal Box is a delightful room with Racecourse views, reserved for members of the Royal Family on race days. It enjoys its own private, enclosed viewing terrace, private lift and toilet facilities. Ideal for a special dinner or board meeting.

    I didn't visit for an equine event, I was attending an open day in a rented out function room in the main stand. The venue was gorgeous, the grounds absolutely pristine, almost too nice for horses to run around on. Great buildings, lovely atmosphere.

    Absolutely wonderful first time experience. Friendly and helpful staff on every occasion we met them; particular thanks to Lesley and Lyndsay, these guys completely made my day as special as it should have been for a first timer, describing the venue, taking time to show us around and explain things and making us feel thoroughly welcomed, and a bit like royalty! Had a fantastic fish platter in Frankels, served by the lovely Grace, and all staff again happy and welcoming. Still here, not won yet, so very hopeful! Really enjoyed the clean, easy, well cared for surroundings, and great staff! Fabulous race day. So exciting, to be there.

    We bought the Century Stand tickets for the QIPCO 1000 Guineas race. Will call was simple and easy. Parking for premier was £10. The races were thrilling and swift. Recommend the experience.
