London Gold Cup Lunch 2026
Glenn Hoddle & Frank Bruno
The London Gold Cup Lunch 2026 was another spectacular success, bringing together racing fans, corporate guests and sporting legends for an unforgettable afternoon of Cheltenham Hospitality in the stunning surroundings of The Oval.
Hosted in the prestigious 175 Suite, guests enjoyed one of the capital’s standout Cheltenham Gold Cup Hospitality events as the biggest day in National Hunt racing unfolded live on the giant screens. With the iconic Oval wicket as the backdrop and the electric atmosphere of Gold Cup Friday filling the room, the event once again delivered a perfect blend of sport, entertainment and premium hospitality.
Guests were welcomed with a three-course lunch and a six-hour complimentary bar, creating a relaxed yet lively setting to enjoy the day’s racing. Throughout the afternoon, our professional racing expert provided on-screen tips and insights, helping guests follow the runners and riders across Cheltenham’s famous Prestbury Park.
A major highlight of the day came from our two special guests, football legend Glenn Hoddle and former heavyweight world champion Frank Bruno. Glenn captivated the audience with fascinating stories from his playing days with Tottenham Hotspur and England, as well as his experiences managing the national team. Meanwhile, Frank Bruno had the room thoroughly entertained with his trademark humour and larger-than-life personality, sharing memorable moments from his incredible boxing career.
The event was expertly hosted by Sky Sports presenter Pete Graves, whose energy and sporting knowledge kept the afternoon flowing seamlessly, guiding guests through the racing action and engaging interviews with both sporting icons. With the Cheltenham Gold Cup itself delivering thrilling drama on the track, the atmosphere inside the 175 Suite was buzzing throughout the afternoon as guests followed every moment of the action.
The London Gold Cup Lunch once again proved to be one of the premier Cheltenham Hospitality events in the capital, combining world-class sport, exceptional hospitality and unforgettable stories from some of Britain’s greatest sporting figures.
