Why not consider holding your event here for something a bit different that combines superb hospitality with a unique setting.

The recently refurbished Queens Stand, with its suites and balconies and panoramic views of the course, is available for race days and non race days alike. With or without the excitement of a photo finish and a flutter, Musselburgh Racecourse is a fabulous choice for corporate days out, private parties and weddings.

Musselburgh Racecourse is firmly established as one of the UK's most stylish racecourses and delivers a packed programme of exciting race day fixtures together with the best in venue hospitality, dining and customer service.

Step through the gates and you will be immediately impressed by the quality of the racecourse facilities and sense the welcoming, professional atmosphere as racegoers gather to experience the thrill of a day's racing. All racecourse facilities are within easy reach and close proximity to the Parade Ring, winning post, places to eat and drink, betting options and entertainment.

Our passion for horse racing is evident and has been delivered with style and flair since 1816. Development over the past 20 years has seen a transformation and extension of facilities and services available to visitors, owners, trainers, jockeys and horses.

As a not-for-profit organisation, all income is invested back into Musselburgh Racecourse to ensure we continue to offer award-winning facilities.
