Nottingham Racecourse Event Hire

Nottingham Racecourse is a racecourse located in Nottingham. As well as hosting horse racing, the course is available for hire for a range of exhibitions, corporate events and celebrations. There is both hard standing space outside and indoor space suitable for trade shows and expos, with multiple rooms available for up to 400 delegates and outdoor space for up to 2,500. There are packages available for couples looking to tie the knot with staff on hand to help plan the big day.

Nottingham Racecourse serves as a functional space for diverse gatherings, ranging from corporate trade shows to large outdoor exhibitions. When hosting up to 400 guests indoors, organisers frequently require stacking chairs, trestle tables, and linen to maximise room capacity. For outdoor events accommodating 2,500 people, we provide heavy duty catering equipment and robust glassware for high volume service. Whether you are arranging a formal conference or a wedding reception, our inventory supports the specific logistical demands of these varied indoor and outdoor environments.

Planning for a venue of this size requires careful consideration of floor plans and guest flow. For the indoor suites, we recommend calculating chair counts based on the specific room layout to avoid overcrowding. When utilising the outdoor hard standing areas, factor in the need for additional tables and catering stations to handle high foot traffic. Always confirm the exact dimensions of your allocated space with the venue management team before placing an order to confirm that your selected equipment fits the designated area safely.

Expo Hire delivers to Nottingham and the surrounding area seven days a week. Our logistics team is familiar with the access points at the racecourse, which helps streamline the setup process for your event. Delivery and collection costs are calculated based on the distance from our warehouse to the venue. We suggest booking your delivery slot in advance to align with the venue access times provided by the racecourse staff, allowing for an efficient load in and load out process for your equipment.

Nottingham Racecourse provides a versatile setting for exhibitions, conferences, and private celebrations. For corporate trade shows in the indoor suites, organisers frequently hire trestle tables, conference chairs, and modular staging. When hosting larger gatherings of up to 400 delegates, we supply glassware, crockery, and stainless steel cutlery for catering services. The extensive outdoor areas, which accommodate 2,500 people, often require heavy-duty folding chairs and sturdy garden tables. We also provide linen hire to help maintain a professional appearance across all event rooms and banquet layouts.

When planning an event at this venue, consider the layout of the multiple indoor rooms versus the open outdoor space. For indoor conferences, calculate your seating requirements based on a theatre or cabaret style to determine the exact number of chairs needed. If you are utilising the outdoor areas, remember to account for uneven ground by selecting flat-based furniture. We recommend creating a floor plan early to confirm space for catering equipment and serving stations, which helps us load your delivery correctly.
