The **Grandstand 2nd Floor** transforms from racecourse viewing gallery to extraordinary party venue with the flip of a switch. We've hosted everything from corporate galas to milestone birthday celebrations in this 780m² pillar-free space, where 550 of your guests can mingle freely or 500 can sit down to dinner without anyone getting stuck behind a column. Those floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the racecourse by day become your party's dramatic backdrop by night, with the Berkshire countryside stretching beyond. When you need atmosphere over views, our grey-out blinds transform the space completely, letting you create whatever mood your celebration demands. Corporate awards evenings have used theatrical lighting here, while wedding receptions have danced until dawn under twinkling installations. Our integrated catering units connect directly to the kitchens, meaning hot food arrives hot and champagne stays perfectly chilled. The feature bars positioned throughout keep drinks flowing without queues forming, while our comprehensive toilet facilities mean no one misses the speeches. We've refined the flow through countless events, from product launches requiring multiple display zones to charity auctions where every sight line matters. Getting here couldn't be simpler, with our own train station delivering guests directly from London and beyond. Those driving find ample free parking waiting, with the M4 just minutes away. Our dedicated lift ensures everyone enjoys the party, with full wheelchair access throughout. Our events team knows this space inside out. We'll help you configure it for your specific celebration, whether that's banquet style for 500, theatre seating for presentations, or cocktail layout for networking. The high-speed Wi-Fi handles whatever your event demands, from live streaming birthday messages to coordinating social media walls.
