Cheltenham Festival Tickets
Crowd levels on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of the Festival are kept to around 55,000, compared with a capacity of 65,000 on Friday for the Gold Cup. Of the Festival’s daily audience, a quarter come from Gloucestershire and the surrounding area and another quarter from London and the Home Counties. Of the rest, up to 10,000 come from Ireland, and invaders from the Emerald Isle proceed to take over much of the Cotswolds countryside and its hostelries.
