Admission to the Premier Enclosure at Thirsk Racecourse

The Premier Enclosure (previously known as the 'Club') is suitable for racegoers who want the full 'raceday' experience. Entry is controlled by a 'badge' either as an 'Annual Badge Holder', or as a 'Day Badge Holder' for a single fixture. (Sponsorship and corporate parties are issued with Day Badges.)

The expected dress code is smart - GENTLEMEN ARE REQUIRED TO WEAR COLLAR AND TIE.
