Polo

Hospitality at the season's defining matches — the Gold Cup, Argentine Open and private-club fixtures.

Polo match in play

What we arrange

Include your dates, party size and an indicative budget with your enquiry — it lets us confirm the right tier of access first time. VIP transport — jets, helicopters, chauffeurs and fast-track arrivals — can be arranged around any event for clients travelling from overseas.

When & where

The Cartier Queen's Cup and Gold Cup in England, Sotogrande in Spain and the Argentine Open in Buenos Aires headline the polo year. We arrange marquee hospitality and the day around it.

How access works

Tell us the event, your dates, party size and an indicative budget. We confirm what is genuinely available for your date — access is sourced through our partner network and never guaranteed — hold it in your name, and arrange the jets, hotels, transfers and tables around it. Nothing is committed until you approve.

OF.luxury is a concierge and sourcing service — not a ticket vendor or box office. Availability, allocation, entry and pricing are never guaranteed and are confirmed case by case before any commitment. All events are subject to change or cancellation by the organiser.

Calendars move. Governing bodies confirm fixture dates and start times at different points in the year, and broadcasters move them again afterwards. We work to the confirmed date for your booking, not the provisional one — and we say so plainly if a date is not yet fixed.

What VIP access actually means here

The tiers that genuinely exist for polo, and what each one gets you.

Private box
Your own box overlooking the finish, with a seated lunch, afternoon tea and a betting facility inside the room. The standard at Ascot and Cheltenham.
Royal Enclosure and members' badges
The enclosure itself, with the dress code that comes with it. Access is by application and sponsorship, and the timelines are long.
Restaurant hospitality
A reserved table in one of the on-course restaurants with a view of the track and a full-day menu.
We place VIP and hospitality only. We do not sell general admission, resale seats or standing tickets, and we will not take a booking we cannot source through an official or directly contracted channel. If the only thing available for your date is a general-admission ticket, we will tell you that rather than sell you one.

How the sourcing actually works

Hospitality at this level is not a marketplace. Boxes, suites and premium seats are allocated by the venue, the governing body or an appointed hospitality partner, and most of the good inventory never reaches a public listing at all. What that means in practice is that lead time is the single biggest factor in what you end up with — not budget.

For a marquee polo date, six to twelve weeks is a comfortable window and gives us a genuine choice of positions. Inside three weeks the question changes from which box to whether anything credible exists at all. We would rather tell you a date is gone than put you in a seat that does not match what you asked for.

What we need from you

The date or the fixture, the number of guests, and an indicative budget. That is enough for us to come back with what is genuinely available and what it costs, usually the same day. If you are flexible on the fixture — a different match in the same week, a different session at the same event — say so, because it often doubles the options.

What we will not do

We do not list inventory we have not confirmed, we do not take deposits against availability we are still chasing, and we do not quote a price that moves later. Every booking is confirmed in writing with the terms attached before payment. Where an event is sold through an official hospitality programme, you are booked into that programme and receive its documentation, not a substitute.

Getting there and staying

Most polo bookings travel. We arrange the private jet or helicopter transfer, the chauffeured cars on both ends and the villa or suite around the fixture, so the event and the trip are handled on one thread rather than three. For anything requiring security or NDA-grade discretion, that is arranged before you arrive rather than on the day.
