Punchestown Racecourse, the home of Irish National Hunt Racing for more than 150 years is very different to any other racecourse for the simple fact that it is the only racecourse in Ireland to continue to host cross country racing, the very founder of modern era steeplechasing.
To say that Punchestown has grown considerably from its days of only double banks and stone walls would be a huge understatement when one considers the eloquent and imposing structures that were developed to bring Punchestown into the 21st century. Punchestown has successfully managed to expand in order to cope with the 80,000 strong crowds which visit throughout the Irish National Hunt Festival but at the same time generate that special countryside feeling at all its race meetings.
Today, Punchestown is not only the home of the most valuable National Hunt Festival in Ireland but also the home of a host of very competitive and exciting race days where the needs of senior citizens right down to toddlers are catered for over a broad range of price structures.
