FAQs
How do I get to The Centaur at Cheltenham Racecourse?
The Centaur is inside Cheltenham Racecourse (Prestbury Park). From Cheltenham Spa station, take a taxi (about 10 min, ~£8) or bus. If driving, use GL50 4SH for sat-nav — there's ample free parking on site.
Which sessions are most likely to feature the top players?
The Final and Semi-Finals are guaranteed big-name action. In early rounds, check the official draw on WorldSnooker.com once it's released — sessions are usually split across two tables, so the Quarter-Finals and last-16 evenings are often great value for seeing multiple top players.
Is there a dress code?
No formal dress code — smart casual is perfectly fine. The Centaur is an indoor arena so layers are handy as it can get cool during long sessions.
What are the session times?
Typically afternoon sessions start around 1:00pm and evening sessions around 7:00pm, though exact timings are confirmed closer to the event on the WST website. Doors usually open 30 minutes before play.
Are there good pubs or food options nearby?
The Centaur has its own bars and catering on site. For pre-match pubs in Cheltenham town centre (a short drive or 25-min walk), The Restoration on High Street and The Bayshill Inn are popular. Cheltenham has a great food scene — Montpellier quarter is excellent for a pre-session meal.
Can I bring a camera?
Standard compact cameras are usually fine for snooker events but professional cameras with detachable lenses are not permitted. No flash photography during play — the players take silence and concentration seriously!
