GL EVENTS

GL events UK, in partnership with the DP World Tour, signed a new three-year contract to remain as the temporary structure provider of the newly renamed Cazoo Open de France through 2024. The three-year agreement will begin in 2022 when the DP World Tour returns to the outskirts of Paris, in Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, serving as the host site.

The Cheltenham Festival is one of the biggest horse racing events in the UK. Each year, 28 races take place over a four-day period, with an average of 65,000 attendees visiting the Cheltenham Racecourse in Gloucestershire. The event includes Ladies Day, the Gold Cup race and sometimes coincides with St. Patrick’s Day.
GL events UK has been providing temporary infrastructure to the Festival for 7 years, and as the 2022 Festival got under way fully for the first time since the pandemic, GL events UK was delighted to again install over 15,000 square meters of temporary structures, supporting the Tented Village as well as providing additional facilities.
The build required the construction of two 20m x 40m triple deck structures to house an exclusive dining and hospitality space with surrounding glass panels, and featured balconies to watch the races. Due to the hospitality requirements of approximately 40,000 guests, served over the four-day festival, several public restaurants and bars, and hospitality pods were provided for casual dining and beverages.
