Horse Racing Sponsorship
Have you considered adding a sponsored horse race to your portfolio of hospitality events? It can be done for surprisingly little money and enhances your "day at the races" ten fold. Firstly, your guests will be honoured and flattered to be invited to "your special day". In addition, on the day itself, they will feel like VIP's, wining and dining in the very best facilities, visits to the Parade Ring, prize giving ceremony and so on.
Involvement
Sponsoring a race brings increased involvement in the day for the hosts and guests. Your involvement starts with a trip to the paddock to inspect the runners and riders and judge the "best turned out horse". After the race a chosen representative of your company or a special guest can present the trophies to the successful owner, trainer and jockey at the prize winning ceremony.
Sponsorship revenue is vital to racecourses and for this reason the authorities will bend over backwards to provide you with the very best service and facilities. There are also opportunities for corporate branding around the course with advertising and signage around the course. Needless to say the race can be named after your company or key guest - whatever happens, you chose the name!
When your guests appreciate the importance of the day to your company, they will be flattered to be invited to such an important occasion.
How much does it cost to sponsor a race?
Costs will vary according to the importance of the race and whether it is being televised. However, for groups of 50 - 100, the additional cost can sometimes be as low as £30 - £20 per person - we believe the best value for money in hospitality.
