The Racecourse
Located on top of the Sussex Downs, there is nowhere more inspiring to hold a meeting or special celebration than Goodwood Racecourse.
Function Spaces
Charlton Stand
Perfect for special parties and larger conferences, The Charlton Stand is entirely self-contained: your guests have access to private cloakrooms and unrivalled views over the surrounding area of outstanding natural beauty. Seating parties of between 100 and 250 guests, this stand has two distinct areas which can be used for drinks receptions and meetings.
"Glorious Goodwood"
The first public race meeting took place in 1802 and, through the nineteenth century, ‘Glorious Goodwood,’ as the press named it, became a highlight of the summer season
Sussex Stand
With its large glass front, The Sussex Stand gives fantastic views across the course and is ideal for events with 50 - 60 guests. Comprising of two seperate areas, this stand also gives you the chance to seperate your meeting and dining areas; giving your guests the full experience that Goodwood Racecourse has to offer.
Horsewalk
Situated underneath The Charlton Stand, The Horsewalk is a clean, modern and airy space. From seminars and meetings, to celebration dinners and dances, The Horsewalk is suitable for 50 - 200 guests. This light and spacious restaurant provides a modern British feel and is ideally located for close up views of all horses.
I love training in Box 1 of the Sussex Stand as it has all the facilities that are needed for a full day. The view of the racecourse and the Downs is great for inspiring the creatives in a group and the balcony and other boxes are available as break-out rooms.
