delicious drinks served to the highest standard. “The idea is for people to be able to watch the racing, see their drinks being made from the cocktail bar in the middle of the restaurant, and see their food being made in the open kitchen,” explained Moulson about the restaurant’s theatrical design. “People can look in and see their sushi being prepared by the chefs.” Theatre@ has been a huge success. “The feedback we got in 2018 was absolutely phenomenal,” said Moulson. “The food was really well received, and people loved the setting, in particular the fact that you can see the whole course from the restaurant and private balcony. The view of the racecourse is exceptional – you can see the runners coming around the final bend towards the winning post.” Hospitality packages for Theatre@ start from £675 per person.

Theatre@ When it comes to fusing fine dining at the heart of the on-course action, Theatre@, which opened its doors at the 2018 Festival, is the place to be. The Pan-Asian restaurant, believed to be the first of its kind at a British racecourse, is situated on the third floor of Cheltenham’s premium course-facing suites, offering unrivalled views of the final fences from its own private balcony. “We felt that people wanted their time at Cheltenham to be an incredible experience and something unique, that you wouldn’t get on any other racecourse,” said Lee Moulson, the Jockey Club South West’s regional head of sales. “Our vision was for a restaurant that’s a fine dining experience but set in an intimate atmosphere.” The restaurant’s bright, casual and comfortable décor makes it the perfect spot for a relaxed lunch with friends and family. And for those interested in something a little more private, for a special occasion or to entertain clients, there are also exclusive booths available to book. “The atmosphere is intimate, yet there’s plenty of space which is really quite special,” said Moulson. The creative menu is Pan-Asian, inspired by the East’s unique flavours and cooking methods and combined with fresh Cotswolds produce. Diners can expect bento boxes, carefully crafted dishes, and
