Our Guest Thoughts
The event last week was a huge success and a great part of this was down to the service and support we received from your team. Laura who helped us on the first day was absolutely brilliant ensuring all the room set-up was exactly as we required it. Matt the next day also continued this excellent service,
The catering was also of a very high standard so please pass our thanks on to the catering team.
Overall we were extremely satisfied with our experience at Wetherby Racecourse and will definitely consider your facility for future events.
Steve Lang, Director – Motiv8, July 2025
We had a very successful meeting at the racecourse a few weeks ago, which was a first time booking for our company. Everyone in attendance was very impressed with the arrangement which included the use of two rooms, how they were set up effectively for the meeting type, and the catering was lovely with plenty of tea and coffee available. We also very much appreciated the service from staff and how we were cared for whilst making use of their facilities.
Rosie Livingstone – Business Support Manager, Five Rivers June 2025
I would just like to thank you and your team for yesterdays National Grid presentation.
I think all went extremely well and I was very impressed with how smoothly the event went.
Please pass on my thanks to your team.
Jon Jamieson SHES & Compliance Engineer, National Grid – March 2025
Thank you for providing a fabulous venue for our Away Day. We have collated really good feedback about the atmosphere, the view, the room and of course the refreshments and lunch. I was really pleased with the attention to detail, and the help and support you provided at the start and during the day. We will, and have recommended the venue – and certainly for our team if we need to have such an event again we wouldn’t hesitate to use you.
Jayne King, The British Library – 23rd February 2023
Thank you very much, it was absolutely brilliant. The venue was perfect and the food good!
INNOVA – February 2023
Sarah and the team were fantastic.
It’s not easy to cook for over 300 people, our meal was superb and every table was looked after brilliantly.
As with other events the entire team at Wetherby Racecourse were excellent, looking forward to the next event!!
Simon Williams – Wetherby RUFC ‘An Evening With’ Dinner
Great events team to work with, nothing is to much trouble and the venue works really well.
Claire Balch – SMMT Roadshow
Feedback from our delegates is excellent. Thank you for your attention to detail, much appreciated.
Veronica Wilkinson – Chartered Insurance Institute (NERG) Seminar
The Bramham Hall worked really well for our 300 delegates and using the ceiling television screens to project our presentation throughout the room helped no end.
The serving of refreshments and food worked really well. I timed and it took 300 people 11 minutes to all have a drink which enabled us to stay on schedule throughout the day. Lunch worked really well and everyone got through the buffet quick and efficiently.
Sinead Gracey – Argos
We would like to thank everyone on the Wetherby Racecourse events team for organising our recent wedding party. The room was set up beautifully, the evening ran smoothly and the food was excellent from start to finish. Many of our guests commented on what a great find the venue was.

Bev Green, Group Sales Manager
I have nothing but good things to say about Wetherby racecourse as an event venue, and particularly about all its staff. The knowledge and expertise of the staff at Wetherby racecourse was absolutely invaluable. They were there at every step to offer their insight and know-how to make the event a massive success.
