Nottingham Racecourse on the right track

Nottingham Racecourse has adapted to a more challenging economy recently expanding its business model and re-defining the use of the racecourse to appeal to the existing local market.

Corporate hospitality has faced a multitude of challenges following the economic down-turn forcing venues to adjust and extend their offerings to suit a more financially sensible mind-set amongst their clients. As a result, Nottingham Racecourse has provided clients with simple no-nonsense packages, priced to reflect current fiscal actualities.

This summer the racecourse launched a simple, affordable hospitality taster package, offering clients 25% off all their hospitality. More recently, pay as-you-go conferencing, where prices are allocated on an hourly basis was launched, allowing clients to book as late as two hours before arrival.

Earlier this year Nottingham Racecourse collaborated with Nottingham City Council to promote and productively utilise the outdoor event space available at the course. The partnership marks an extension of the racecourse's traditional business; strengthening existing ties and offering clients the opportunity to make use of all available space at the course.

Nadia Gollings, commercial manager at Nottingham Racecourse said "Our venue, like so many others, has had to adapt to reflect external economic realities and opening up the centre of the course and offering modest affordable packages for corporate hospitality has certainly showcased us to a new range of business during the current challenging economic climate."

The racecourse is better known for its top racing calendar throughout the year, however, when the course is not hosting a racing fixture the venue boasts 15 suites accommodating 12 - 200 people. Conveniently located just two miles from Nottingham City Centre and set within Colwick Park's 280 acres, Nottingham Racecourse represents a unique venue offering greenery and open space.
