A touch of class at Newmarket Races


We were recently at Newmarket for the third time, building the après race bar and chillout zone on the Hyperion Lawn at the QIPCO Guineas Festival. The much-loved Guineas Festival is one of the first major racing events of the Summer.

This year’s Saturday racing programme was attended by 19,417 racegoers, a Guineas record. They descended en masse between races, attracted by cocktails and an après race DJ set from Radio X’s Johnny Vaughan. On the sporting side, the star of the show was Ryan Moore. He rode bookies’ favourite Churchill to victory in the climactic 2,000 Guineas race, one of three victories for the jockey on the day.

A structure from Silver Stage will lend a luxury feel to any event, with a smooth, chic and professional finish. The S5 TriSpan is the perfect backdrop for any great day out; here it easily accommodated the thronging crowds and met the high standards of the Rowley Mile. Our SaddleSpan structures all feature the same understated design and sleek, professional look and feel; what this means for you is that they are the perfect canvas for events of all shapes and sizes.

At the QIPCO Guineas Festival we used vinyl to brand the structure with the Hyperion Lawn logo. The branding retained its superb finish throughout and gave the area an extra something. Silver Stage can provide bespoke branding for any structure that you hire; vinyl and full mesh wraps are both available.

We’re proud of our working relationship with the QIPCO Guineas Festival, and look forward to working with them in years to come.
