Lucky Cheltenham fans to enjoy excitement of festival from sunny Spain

Cheltenham Festival fans can win a trip to watch the event from Benidorm, including flights and VIP treatment, as part of a promotional contest by Freebets.com.

In an exciting promotion, Freebets.com is offering racing fans a chance to win an all-expenses-paid trip to the Cheltenham Festival 2026 from the sunny location of Benidorm, Spain. This initiative includes flights, accommodation, and VIP experiences for four lucky winners, highlighting the growing trend of fans seeking alternative viewing experiences that might be more affordable than attending the event in person.

Last year’s competition garnered significant attention when fans realized that it was cheaper to enjoy the festival atmosphere from Spain rather than at the event in Cheltenham. This year, the promotion returns, kicking off during the festival dates of March 10-15. The winners will have the chance to enjoy the races alongside social media star Stephen 'Racing Blogger' Power, enhancing the event's allure with added celebrity presence.

As ticket prices soar, with a single day's admission costing nearly Β£100, this promotion offers a unique alternative for racing enthusiasts who want to engage with the festival without the financial burden of attending in person. Such initiatives could shift how fans experience major sporting events, merging travel and leisure with the thrill of competition in a cost-effective manner.
