Chester Racecourse has announced a new partnership with Virgin Bet and LiveScore Bet, part of LiveScore Group, a dynamic force in the sportsbook industry. As part of this collaboration, Virgin Bet will become the title sponsor of the Autumn Racing Food & Drink Weekend on the 13 and 14 of September. The event will now be known as the Virgin Bet Autumn Racing Food & Drink Weekend.

The Saturday meeting, a Premier Raceday, will feature a thrilling seven-race card with a total prize pool of £290,000. Virgin Bet and LiveScore Bet will sponsor three key races, including the prestigious Listed Stand Cup Stakes and the Watergate Cup, a Class 2 Heritage Handicap.

A firm supporter of racing, LiveScore Group’s partnership with the world’s oldest operating racecourse was first established last month, when Virgin Bet and LiveScore Bet sponsored two races at Powells Jewellery Ladies Day: The Virgin Bet Chester Stakes and The LiveScore Bet Handicap Stakes.

Virgin Bet’s Personal Safety Partner, WalkSafe, will also be integrated as part of the race weekend sponsorship. This inclusion will improve the experience and the safety of all spectators at Chester Racecourse with the aim of creating a more inclusive and welcoming environment for all.

WalkSafe is an app developed to provide a variety of safety measurements via a user’s device, which will give increased confidence and peace of mind when travelling to and from the racecourse.

Dominic Vye, Marketing Director at Virgin Bet, said: “We are thrilled to announce Virgin Bet and LiveScore Bet’s sponsorship with Chester Racecourse.”

“Being the oldest racecourse still in operation, Chester holds a special place in the hearts of racing enthusiasts, and we are excited to now be a part of the Autumn Racing Food & Drink Weekend and help deliver an unparalleled sports betting experience.”

Kate Dawson, Commercial Director at Chester Racecourse, said: “Virgin Bet and LiveScore Bet are committed to being leading players in horse racing, so we are naturally delighted to announce their partnerships with our racecourse.

“The Saturday of our Autumn Racing Food & Drink Weekend features a fantastic card of racing; with the Virgin Bet Stand Cup Stakes and LiveScore Bet Watergate Cup both being broadcast on ITV and Sky Sports Racing.

“There are many opportunities to explore through this partnership and we look forward to working with Virgin Bet to bring those to fruition.”

Award-winning sportsbook provider strengthens LATAM presence by integrating with leading iGaming platform ecosystem ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup

2, June 2026: Altenar, a leading sportsbook provider, has partnered with Atlaslive to integrate its fully managed sportsbook into the company’s iGaming platform ecosystem, expanding access to its award-winning sports betting technology for operators across Latin America.

Through the integration, Atlaslive-powered operators will gain access to Altenar’s complete sportsbook solution alongside the platform’s existing infrastructure, enabling operators to choose the sportsbook configuration that best aligns with their market strategy, regulatory requirements, and player acquisition goals.

The partnership further strengthens Altenar’s presence across LATAM and supports its strategy of making flexible, high-performance sportsbook technology available through leading platform providers. By combining Altenar’s sportsbook capabilities with Atlaslive’s scalable platform environment, operators benefit from greater deployment flexibility without compromising on performance, trading depth, or operational efficiency.

With the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching, demand for scalable and reliable sportsbook technology is expected to increase significantly. The integration positions operators to capitalise on one of the highest-volume periods in the sports betting calendar with reduced implementation timelines and a proven sportsbook solution designed to perform under peak demand.

Altenar currently operates across more than 50 regulated jurisdictions and holds licences from major regulatory authorities including the UKGC, MGA and AGCO. Most recently, the company was recognised as Best Online Sportsbook Provider at the SiGMA South America Awards 2026, following its Sportsbook Supplier of the Year win at the SBC Awards Latinoamérica 2024.

Frederico Caputi, Senior Sales Manager at Altenar, said:

“We are pleased to partner with Atlaslive and bring our sportsbook technology to their growing operator network. This integration expands the reach of our fully managed sportsbook solution while giving operators more flexibility in how they build and scale their sports betting offering.

“Through this collaboration, operators gain access to a proven sportsbook product that combines live betting capabilities, advanced risk management, and extensive sports content with the speed and scalability required to succeed in competitive markets.”

Volodymyr Taftai, Country Director for Brazil at Atlaslive, added:

“Giving operators real choice in how they build their sportsbook is a competitive advantage – for them and for us. Altenar’s track record across regulated markets and their depth in risk management and trading make them the right partner to start with. We’re expanding our platform into a multi-sportsbook ecosystem because that’s what operators in today’s market need: flexibility without compromise on quality.”

The agreement reinforces Altenar’s commitment to building an open and adaptable sportsbook ecosystem that enables operators and platform providers to deliver differentiated sports betting experiences across regulated markets worldwide.
