Queen’s Stand Boxes

The Queen’s Stand

Introduction

The Private Boxes in the prestigious Queen’s Stand at Epsom Racecourse are some of the most exclusive facilities in racing. The Queen’s Stand is the premium enclosure at Epsom, equivalent to the Royal Enclosure at Royal Ascot. The Queen’s Stand is a superb design, one of the most impressive stands in British racing. The highly formal, symmetrical design – not unlike a cruise ship – emphasises the orientation directly onto the finishing line and across the course towards the race start. Natural daylight floods the building and the style is contemporary.

Location

The Queen’s Stand Private Boxes are situated on the 4th Floor (Top) of the Queen’s Stand, there are also some boxes on the 2nd Floor, including the Queen’s Royal Box. The boxes overlook the Finish Post and the finishing straight.

Facility/Décor

The boxes are functional, with floor-to-ceiling windows, a private bar, and a TV monitor. For a formal luncheon, you will have two round tables in the box (for 20 guests).

Private Boxes
