The Festival Zone is the beating heart of the Randox Grand National Festival. Here there are no dress codes, no reservations and there's definitely no holding back.
You can dance all day in Red Rum Garden, soak up the Ibiza vibes in O Beach, belt out the anthems in Aintree Pavilion and raise a glass in the Rose and Crown Pub. You might not have a reserved seat, but trust us, you won't want to sit down.
You can catch every stride on the big screens and feel the thunder roll in from The Mound as you watch the champion cross the finish line.
The Festival Zone is loud, it's live, it's where legends are cheered and lifelong memories are made. You might come for the racing, but you'll stay for the atmosphere.
For the first time ever on a UK racecourse, O Beach will bring it's iconic Ibiza energy to racing's biggest party. Brand new for 2026, The Festival Zone will host the world famous beach club, offering an elevated social experience, blending curated music, high-energy atmosphere and the unmistakable O Beach look and feel throughout the day.
Get there early to grab your seat, then soak up the Balearic atmosphere all day long with live racing on screens, and party vibes in between. Be one of the first to experience this unmissable experience and start a brand new Grand National story, only in the Festival Zone.
The Red Rum Garden is where the party happens. DJ sets keep the energy high all day long and the big screens mean you can catch every winner live, even if you don't make it to the track. No seats, and no slowing down, the Red Rum Garden is wall-to-wall atmosphere and back-to-back anthems.
Basslines drop. Hands go up. Sunglasses stay on. This is your all-day dancefloor.
When the final race is run, the afterparty is already in full swing, and this is the place everyone’s trying to get into. Get there early and prepare to stay late, because once it’s full… it’s full.
Aintree Pavilion is where voices get louder than the commentary. Picture this: live cover bands, arms round your mates, 'Sweet Caroline' echoing off the roof. And that chorus? You’ll hear it from the Parade Ring.
Big screens keep every second of racing front and centre, so you won’t miss a photo finish. Plus, bars line the space, so when you’re ready for the next round, it’s already within reach.
No seat? No problem. You won’t be sitting down anyway. And with a roof overhead, the British weather can do its thing, you’ll be too busy belting out the next tune or celebrating that big win.
The Rose and Crown Pub is back and bigger than ever for 2026! Right in the middle of the Festival Zone, it’s your go-to spot for classic pub dishes, refreshing pints, and all-day live entertainment.
Grab a seat inside or soak up the vibe on the balcony, the pub is the perfect spot in the Festival Zone for a breather and a bite to eat. Don't blame us if the music is too good to stay seated, your feet might just find their way to the dance floor anyway.
The Festival Zone is home to the Parade Ring and Winners’ Enclosure. This is your opportunity to check the form, admire the grooming, and watch the jockeys saddle up as horses make their final pre-race preparations.
You can feel the anticipation build before they head to post, and then be there for the celebrations as the winner returns for its victory lap.
