Book your seats onboard the British Pullman and travel to the world’s most famous horse race in quintessentially British style. Today, this exceptional journey takes you to Aintree Racecourse, where the legendary National Hunt race combines the thrill of human and equine endeavour with exuberant glamour and a vibrant social scene.
Today’s exhilarating adventure takes you to the Grand National, one of the greatest events in the sporting calendar. Board the British Pullman, ready for your journey north to Aintree Racecourse and start the experience with a sparkling Bellini cocktail and a delicious brunch as the train makes its way towards Liverpool.
Here, disembark from the train and board a private coach to Aintree. You will then be handed your Reserved Seat badge and entry ticket on the journey – present it to the gate staff and wait to pass through the security checks. Once inside, proceed to your seat in a prestigious Princess Royal stand, ready to enjoy the nail-biting action as world-class jockeys and their horses tackle 30 challenging fences.
We ask that you return to the coach by 18:40, ready for departure at 18:45. Please note that this is after the last race – if you choose to watch the last race, please be sure to allow enough time to return to the coach.
Rejoin the gleaming carriages of the British Pullman train for the journey home. Everyone’s a winner as you celebrate the day with a glass of chilled champagne, followed by a sumptuous five-course dinner by Head Chef Jon Freeman, accompanied by wine.
Please dress appropriately for the weather conditions and bear in mind that you will be outside for much of the day, with some areas of the course on grass and gravel. When it comes to the Grand National dress code, the Aintree Racecourse’s motto is simple: dress to feel your best. “Whatever your tastes, the most important thing when choosing your outfit is, of course, comfort and confidence. So wear what feels right for you and will keep you feeling your best from start to finish, whatever the weather.“
Your Reserved Seat badge gives you access to Level 1 of the impressive Princess Royal Stand, which offers excellent views to watch the nail-biting action and witness the drama unfold. From the comfort of your seat, celebrate the triumphant team – hopefully after having placed a winning bet!
