Semi-Finals Day at the Boaters Enclosure
Henley Regatta hospitality Saturday is semi-finals day in every category, with the best racing of the week before the finals and the town of Henley-on-Thames at its busiest.
A reserved table in the Boaters Enclosure keeps your guests away from the crowds on the towpath, and reserved parking behind the marquee takes the strain out of the busiest day for travel.

Why Is Henley Regatta Hospitality So Expensive?
Semi-finals bring the largest crowds of the week, and a private table beside the start line, with dining and a full bar, is what sets your day apart from the towpath. Prices may differ from face value.
