"I am very appreciative for all the help given by the staff for my charity raceday, the assistant that Phil & Marie gave to my guests in the hospitality box was exceptional. I would also like to thank Tim for the promotion of my limited edition picture for the charity raffle. The whole day was a great success from the racecourse tour, the parade ring visits and the afternoon tea. All my guests were very impressed with the standards and thoroughly enjoyed their raceday. Several have even asked to do the same again next year! My thanks to you all for making it a great day"

Malcolm Nicholson, Director, Nicholsons of Stalham

“This was the first time we had used Great Yarmouth Racecourse for promotional purposes and I am glad to say we were not disappointed. The publicity at the course was excellent and with the added value of Newspaper and Television exposure spread our name to a new audience. Being able to display product was also a big bonus. The helpfulness of the racecourse staff during the whole process leading up to and on the day made the whole occasion most enjoyable. We certainly hope that circumstances will allow us to do more sponsorship in the future.”  

Glen Hammond, Director, Hammond Group

DATE OF MEETING: 15/08/11

“We decided to hold our Hammond Group event for this year’s competition winners at Great Yarmouth Racecourse in August. I can honestly say it was the best decision we could have made. From the moment our guests arrived for the champagne reception they were extremely well looked after by the very attentive and professional racecourse staff.

Both the food and service was fantastic and our hospitality area was right next to the racecourse giving us a fantastic view of the racing. The whole event was very well organised and I would like to thank everybody concerned for making sure our day was such a success.”

Mike Parrot, Waveney McKenna Ltd

DATE OF MEETING: 10/05/11

"Just a note to thank you and all the staff who looked after us so well at the race day on 10th May. The feedback from our guests was most complementary on all levels.

As you know, this was my first experience at the Gt Yarmouth Races for a corporate event and I would not hesitate to use your services in the future based on the high standards that you provided.”"

Richard Packham, Chief Executive Officer, Great Yarmouth Borough Council

"I attended a Race Meeting in May in one of the Lord Nelson Grandstand Hospitality boxes. I have to say that I was immensely impressed by everything I saw. The quality of the catering was extremely high, and both the catering and Racecourse staff were impeccably turned out, well trained and courteous and helpful. Parking was easy and convenient, the box was comfortable, with superb balcony view of the entire course, and the Tote desk next to the box made betting simple. The afternoon, from start to finish, a top quality experience and I can fully understand why the level of bookings on a raceday has been so encouraging. It is good news for the Borough that Great Yarmouth now has a venue to rival the very best in the region for corporate hospitality, confernces, training and promotional events."
