Almost every event on this site can be attended by anyone who plans: the Grand Slams sell tickets by ballot and by daily ground pass; the art fairs sell tickets for their public days; racecourses sell enclosure tickets a year ahead; Grands Prix sell grandstand seats through their promoters. Hospitality is the tier above: official packages — the Paddock Club at Formula 1, the debentures and hospitality suites at Wimbledon, the fine-dining restaurants at Ascot — sold by the organizer or its appointed agents, at prices the organizer publishes. Accreditation is for the trade and press and cannot be bought. Preview days at art fairs are by invitation from galleries or the fair; the public days that follow are not.
What cannot be bought is the private programme around an event — the brand dinners, the yacht parties, the collection visits — and this site does not describe it. Where an event is genuinely invitation-only, such as a benefit gala or the Allen & Company conference, its page says so and describes only what is public.
Each event page carries an Access and hospitality section written to the same pattern: who sells the public tickets and when they go on sale, whether there is a ballot or a queue, whether general admission or ground passes exist alongside reserved seats, what the published dress code is, and what a visitor without a ticket can still see, which at a Grand Prix, a regatta or a racecourse is often a great deal. Prices appear only when the organizer publishes them, with the source linked; resale prices are set by neither the organizer nor this site and are not quoted. Where an event has an official hospitality programme, the page names it and says who sells it. Where the honest answer is that there is no public route in, the page says that too, so that a reader does not spend a week trying to buy something that is not for sale.
