Seat Unique partners with Chester Racecourse to elevate race days

Responding to demands, Seat Unique has teamed up with the world’s oldest racecourse, exclusively powering its premium ticketing and hospitality offering.

Seat Unique, a leading provider of premium tickets and experiences for live music, sports and cultural events, has entered into an exclusive partnership with Chester Racecourse through a multi-year agreement.

Through the partnership, the online hospitality access at Chester Racecourse is set to increase by 300%, meaning a greater number of racegoers will be able to enjoy race days from the best vantage points.

Boasting the title of the world’s oldest operational racecourse since its inception in 1539, Chester Racecourse aligns with Seat Unique in a shared commitment to innovation and exceeding the demands of modern racing enthusiasts.

Seat Unique has streamlined the process for guests seeking hospitality at Chester Racecourse. Now, with just a few clicks on the user-friendly and secure platform, racegoers have access to eight exclusive hospitality packages and premium facilities like PARADE, 1539 Restaurant & Bar, The White Horse, Private Boxes and the Final Furlong.

The partnership comes as Seat Unique continues to deliver unrivalled race day experiences, having already established collaborations with York Racecourse and providing official access to hospitality and premium tickets for Royal Ascot and Newbury Racecourse.

Robin Sherry, Founder and CEO at Seat Unique said:

We are honoured to collaborate with Chester Racecourse, one of the world’s most historic and iconic racing venues, to deliver unforgettable premium and hospitality experiences for racegoers. At Seat Unique, we’ve witnessed the rise of the experience economy, where guests prioritise premium events over material possessions.

That’s why we’re so excited about our partnership with Chester Racecourse, as it enables us to unlock fresh experiences for racegoers, attract new guests, and introduce innovative ways to enjoy race days.
