Has anyone got accurate knowledge on what it costs to rents boxes in Perth, Pinjarra and Bunbury?

I was told it's around $150 per box at Ascot and as little as $15 a week in Bunbury?

Anyone..

    $45 to $60 is more the mark in Ascot.

    Diva may get a discount? But I have only seen $160.00 pp inclusive of beverage package, gate entry, and a race book person for the private boxes at Ascot. But thats inclusive of a buffet luncheon. You may be able to just hire the room for a nominal fee?

    But on big days, I think its a members draw, and $315 per person.

    On the point of the rooms at Ascot...

    Pretty sure they only do full beverage packages for the rooms, kinda silly ' cause not all patrons want to drink, got a feeling the rooms sit empty a lot of the time!

    I looked into it a while back and given you had to pay upfront for 10-12 people at $160pp plus - they can stick that, when you can hire a room with a serviced cash bar at a pub for anywhere from $1 to $300

    I was pretty sure the original post was talking about horses. If you could get a private area with a beverage package at bunbury for $15 i would be there every single meeting. As it is, a corona and a stale pie costs more than that.

    Yep sorry, its summer time. Can I cut and paste your muppet picture Diva?

    But on the horse box, @ $150 day it would have to have airconditioning......

    Worst club I've ever seen.
    Money grabbing grubs that provide no service to there members and over charge ten fold.
    I know members that couldn't sit down and got to the races to find that the members were booked out.
    A disgrace to call them a club.

    hey dale, you cannot get a corona at ascot!!
    the most popular young persons beer in the world and they want to attract young blood to the track. due to a sponser arrangement corona is a no-no.
    lunacy...
