Sandown Park Racecourse

Porstmouth Road
Esher
Surrey

KT10 9AJ


Considered the best viewing racecourse and a natural amphitheatre, Sandown Park's exceptional facilities make it one of the top racecourses in the UK.

The racecourse has two fantastic areas to watch the racing from - the Premier Enclosure and the Grandstand Enclosure, both of which have convenient Tote betting facilities, bookmakers, bars, and catering facilities.

The Premier enclosure gives you direct access to the Winning Post lawn, the famous 'horsewalk' and also the Loch Fyne Seafood restaurant and with a pre-parade ring, parade ring and winners circle, there is no course where you can get closer to the horses.

The terrace around the parade ring creates the perfect garden party atmosphere, and is the ideal setting for an evening of racing. There are also 34 private boxes which are spacious, light and bright with balconies, fantastic views of the racecourse, betting and cloakroom facilities.

With over 29 days of premier racing throughout the year, serious race-goers mingle with those heading for a great day out.

Extensive exhibition space and conference rooms make Sandown Park the perfect venue. Boasting an on-site hotel Sandown Park Lodge has 21 well-equipped en-suite rooms, a golf course and driving range, Daytona karting and a ski and sports centre there really is something for everyone.
