FAQS

​

What is the dress code?

Smart dress is recommended for this event. Gentlemen should wear suits and ties, while ladies are encouraged to wear dresses and hats to enhance the special atmosphere. Although hats are optional, they are commonly worn. Please note that sports clothing and fancy dress are not permitted at the Grand National meeting.

​

Bags and security

Customers are advised not to bring any bags larger than a small handbag (30 cm x 10 cm x 20 cm). Please note that there will be no luggage storage facility available on site. Bringing a bag may delay your entry to the racecourse, so we strongly encourage you to avoid bringing any bags or prohibited items.

​

Will there be parking available on the day?

Limited car parking is available upon request and is allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. You will be asked during registration if you need a parking pass, which will be emailed to you prior to the event.
The most convenient way to reach Aintree is by train, as Aintree Station is located directly opposite the racecourse

​

Where can I place my bets throughout the day?

Tote stands are located all over the enclosure.

​

When will I receive my ticket?

This year, tickets are going digital. Your tickets will be emailed to you before the event. You will also receive a welcome pack in the post, including your event itinerary. Your Tiger Roll swing badges will be collected upon arrival at the racecourse. 

​​

Where do I go once I arrive at the race track?

Upon arriving at the track, proceed through the main entrance and security checks. Staff will guide you to the Molson Coors Marquee.

​

Does the venue have disabled access?

With the introduction of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) in October 2005, Aintree Racecourse, in common with all 
premises offering access to the Public in England and Wales, assumed a mandatory obligation to provide easy access to all parts of its premises for people with Disabilities, wherever reasonably practicable. The Act recognises, however, that full access is not always reasonably achievable in older existing buildings, and therefore states that in these cases people with disabilities should be able to gain easy access into the premises and that the services they require should be made available to them near their entry point

​

Will taxis be readily available on the day?

Taxis are often hesitant to drop off and pick up from Aintree Racecourse, as it is situated on a dual carriageway. This creates an unsafe environment for collecting or dropping off guests, so please make alternative arrangements if necessary.

​

Will there be cash machines onsite?

Yes, there will be cash machines located at various points around the Enclosure, however these can get extremely busy so we would recommend bringing cash with you before entering the Racecourse.
