The 2024 Punchestown Festival meeting next April will have earlier start times and reduced ticket prices, part of a significant revamp, writes Brian Byrne.

The changes, the result of customer research feedback, will also include the removal of the traditional reserved enclosure to facilitate a wider range of amenities for racegoers. Food and beverage service options are also to be expanded.

The earlier starts of 2.30pm on Tuesday and Wednesday reflect the view of 70pc of racegoers surveyed that the racing should start and finish earlier.

Ticket prices are reduced to €30 on the first three days and to €40 on Friday and Saturday. The original Flexi ticket will be replaced by the new Choice Ticket that can be used Tuesday or Wednesday or Thursday only. Senior, student, group and family ticket concessions continue and all children under 14 years of age can attend for free all season. No early bird offers or promotions will be offered.

The 2024 Punchestown Festival will take place from Tuesday 30th April to Saturday 4th May. Tickets are now on sale. For full information please visit www.punchestown.com.
