Funerals & Wakes

At Worcester Racecourse, our dedicated team know how difficult a time arranging a loved ones funeral can be so we do all we can to ensure a peaceful and serene experience for you and your family.

The view of the city centre with the backdrop of the Cathedral, views of the River Severn and plenty of green space surrounding the racecourse makes the venue picturesque and relaxing despite being so central in the city. A venue that balances the want for reflection, the space needed for your guests, and the help in hosting this occasion.

With a number of suites available, you can be sure of a private setting for your gathering, and can choose to take advantage of the beautiful views across the racecourse if you wish. We hope to take the stress out of catering for the wake, with our expert chef and his team able to provide a menu to suit your tastes or honour your loved one.
