Racing at Ascot 2012: May Racenight

Race, Rattle ‘N’ Roll

Friday 11th (Evening) & Saturday 12th May

Get ready to Race, Rattle ‘n’ Roll at Ascot this spring as the Berkshire track invites you to rock around the racecourse with their 1950s inspired racenight and our readers can take advantage of a fabulous two for one ticket offer.

The racecourse’s only evening meeting will take place on Friday 11th May where the retro atmosphere will be electric with 1950s dress welcome. As an added bonus, all those attending on Friday evening will be offered a free Sunset Boulevard cocktail on arrival. The racing action and 50s feel continues to Saturday with the Betfred Victoria Cup - this usually has bearing on the Royal Meeting as it is often used as the launch pad to the Royal Hunt Cup held on Wednesday 20th June.

The Ascot Grandstand will be transformed into a chic American diner set to a backdrop of classic Cadillacs, ice cream sundaes and roller-girls who will be giving away free Buddy Holly glasses. Toe tapping jive music will play live in the Grandstand after racing with ‘guys and dolls’ on hand to show you how it’s done.

This is racing with a twist, the perfect excuse to get together with friends, family or colleagues. Gates open at 3pm on Friday and 11am on Saturday with live music on the Bandstand between races. The fun will then continue after racing.

We’ve teamed up with our friends at Ascot to offer our readers two £18 Grandstand Admission tickets for the price of one on Friday 11th May.
