PROMOTE YOUR COMPANY
Sponsorship
Fontwell Park Racecourse provides a number of different advertising opportunities that are successful and cost effective tools used to raise the profile of a company, product or service to a ‘captive’ audience.
Racing attracts followers from across the whole social spectrum, with an unforgettable blend of tradition, excitement, glamour and pure spectacle
Statistics
Racing is second only to football measured by spectator numbers (those paying to attend race meetings or watching the sport on television)
In 2005 just under 6 million people went racing, the best figure on record, and up some 18% on 5.1m in 2000
