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.

Beautiful racecourse and great views from Premier enclosure. We were able to see the parade ring from balcony and walk through bar and watch the race from the other side.

Newmarket Racecourse is one of the most renowned venues for horse racing, celebrated for its deep history and significant contribution to the sport. Known as the "home of British horse racing," it offers a blend of tradition and modern amenities, creating a unique atmosphere for both racing enthusiasts and casual visitors. The racecourse provides a variety of racing events throughout the year, attracting large crowds, particularly during major race days. Its expansive grounds offer plenty of facilities, including dining options and entertainment areas, though some visitors note that it can feel busy and a bit spread out. Overall, Newmarket delivers an engaging racing experience, perfect for those who appreciate the sport’s history, though its size and popularity can make it feel overwhelming at times. We throughly enjoyed ourselves, prices were fairly high but expected
