Friday 10:00 • Cheltenham Racecourse • Cheltenham, United Kingdom

There is nothing like a trip to the Pub, a meeting place for friends, a time to catch up, a time to share memories and enjoy a natter over a pint. Over the years pubs have changed, the food, the ambience, the themes and brews have all moved at a far greater pace than the traditions of real ale, a glass of wine and comfort.

This fine dining experience offers guests the very best in cuisine, with stunning dishes to savour whilst watching the best Jump racing in the world.

World-renowned and award-winning 3 Michelin star chef Clare Smyth is coming to The Festival 2025, bringing all the quality and innovation from Core by Clare Smyth.

Core on Course will be the first and only 3 Michelin star concept in sport in 2025, delivering the best of food and the best Jump racing, this will be an experience not to be missed.
