QuinnBet Becomes Official Betting Partner for Festival Friday at the 2025 Punchestown Festival

Media Release Tuesday 25^th March 2025:  Punchestown Racecourse is proud to announce the enhancement of its partnership with QuinnBet for the 2025 Punchestown Festival, where they are the Official Betting Partner on Boodles Champion Hurdle Day, Friday 2nd May 2025.

Having successfully sponsored the QuinnBet Grand National Trial for the past three years, QuinnBet is excited to build on this existing relationship by expanding its involvement at one of Ireland’s most prestigious racing events. As part of this enhanced partnership, QuinnBet will also sponsor the QuinnBet Novice Handicap Chase, one of the key races of Festival Friday.

This two and a half mile chase has been a happy hunting ground for the dual Champion trainer Willie Mullins with quality winners such as Kemboy who landed the race in 2018 before returning for that famous Punchestown Gold Cup victory the following year that saw history making jockey Ruby Walsh wave goodbye to the crowd and his race riding career as he crossed the line.

Niall McPartland, Head of Sponsorship & Commercial at QuinnBet, said: “We’ve enjoyed a fantastic relationship with Punchestown over the past few years, and we’re thrilled to continue building on this at the 2025 Punchestown Festival. As Official Betting Partner for Festival Friday, we’re excited to be involved in such a key part of the event, especially with our sponsorship of the QuinnBet Novice Handicap Chase. Our partnership with Punchestown has allowed us to connect with passionate racing fans, and we look forward to another thrilling day of racing.”

A Partnership That Grows Stronger Every Year

Since first partnering with Punchestown, QuinnBet has been dedicated to supporting Irish racing, bringing its expertise and passion for the sport to one of the premier festivals in the racing calendar. The partnership continues to flourish as both parties work closely to enhance the experience for fans, competitors, and the broader racing community.

“QuinnBet has been a valued partner of Punchestown for a number of years, and we’re excited to have them on board as Official Betting Partner for Festival Friday in 2025,” said Leona Hughes, Sponsorship at Punchestown. “Their commitment to our races and their ongoing support of Punchestown is invaluable, and we’re excited to continue growing our partnership. Festival Friday is set to be an exciting day of racing, and we’re delighted that QuinnBet will be part of that in such a significant way.”
