Marathonbet renews Brighton Racecourse partnership
Sportsbook operator to sponsor three-day race festival for second consecutive year
Marathonbet has struck a deal with Brighton Racecourse and the Arena Racing Company (ARC) to sponsor the 2018 Festival of Racing for a second consecutive year.
The online bookmaker will sponsor the three-day meeting in August, a highlight of Brighton’s racing calendar, and Marathonbet branding will appear throughout the course.
Marathonbet CEO Natalia Zavodnik said: “We’re delighted to be partnering with Brighton Racecourse’s Extraordinary Festival of Racing for another year.
“Last year’s three-day event proved such a success that we couldn’t wait to get involved again,” she added.
Marathonbet and Brighton Racecourse will engage with racing fans in the run up to the Festival with competitions and prize raffles on social media.
Paul Ellison, executive director of Brighton Racecourse, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Marathonbet back to Brighton for the Festival of Racing in August.
“They were fantastic supporters of the meeting last year and we’re really looking forward to working with them to promote their brand, and the meeting, over the coming weeks.”
The bookmaker is based in Brighton, and last year used the famous pier as a backdrop for a flying pigs stunt.
