What Is Cheltenham Festival?
The Cheltenham Festival is a prestigious horse racing event that takes place annually in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England. Push has provided Cheltenham Festival promotional staff to the festival for several years! It is one of the most significant events in the National Hunt racing calendar and typically occurs over four days in March, with the exact dates varying from year to year. The Cheltenham Festival is known for its rich history, high-quality horse racing, and a festive atmosphere that attracts racing enthusiasts from around the world.
Moreover, the festival features a series of championship races, including the Cheltenham Gold Cup, Champion Hurdle, Queen Mother Champion Chase, and Stayers’ Hurdle, among others. These races are highly competitive and showcase the best horses, jockeys, and trainers in the National Hunt discipline.
Furthermore, the Cheltenham Festival is not only about horse racing. It also includes various social and entertainment events, such as live music, fashion contests, and food and drink offerings. The event is famous for its “Cheltenham Roar,” the deafening noise made by the crowd as the tape goes up for the first race of the festival.
Due to its status and popularity, the Cheltenham Festival is a significant event in the British sporting calendar and is closely followed by horse racing fans and punters alike. It often serves as a culmination of the National Hunt racing season and can have a significant impact on the sport’s history and the careers of the horses, jockeys, and trainers involved.
Cheltenham Festival Promotional Staff
Push Promotions can provide a range of Cheltenham Festival promotional staff, such as:
Hosts And Hostesses
Hosts and hostesses can be hired to work in corporate hospitality areas and general admission areas of the festival. Our hosts and hostesses welcome guests, serve food and drinks, and overall ensure that guests have a memorable and positive experience. We have provided hosts and hostesses to work at Cheltenham Festival for several years. Our staff are always enthusiastic and professional, working to Push’s high standards.
Retail Staff
Within our 3000+ staff network, we have staff with extensive retail experience. Our staff can sell merchandise, tickets, passes and more at the Cheltenham festival. They ensure that the festival gusts have a smooth-sailing retail experience.
Event Marshals And Stewards
Cheltenham Festival can hold more than 72,000 fans per day, so having expert marshals and stewards is of paramount importance. They can work in the car parks to direct drivers and pedestrians, keep queues efficient, and general public areas safe and accessible.
Ticket Scanners
Getting so many people into one venue takes quick and efficient ticket scanners. Push can provide such staff, and has done so in the past to iconic UK venues such as Wembley Stadium and Birmingham Utilia Arena. They will ensure that all Festival guests enter the venue quickly, safely and efficiently.
Bar Workers
Moreover, we can provide bar workers to work at Cheltenham’s notoriously busy bar areas. We have bar workers with years of experience in the industry. We also have trained baristas and mixologists on our books, as well as staff with trained Level 2 Food Hygiene Certification.
General Promotional Staff
We can also provide general promotional staff to work at and around the festival. We can work with both the Festival organisers and other businesses who want to promote in Cheltenham at the same time- taking advantage of the thousands upon thousands of visitors. Push can provide staff such as leaflet distributors, sampling staff, promotional models, data capture staff, and more.
Moreover, we can also provide event managers and team leaders to oversee larger teams of our promotional staff.
Of course, we can also provide staff to other horse racing events and festivals around the UK. Additionally, horse racing tracks host events such as concerts and festivals, which Push would be delighted to help you with.
