Ascot Racecourse is synonymous with quality, excellence and a truly memorable day out. It was Queen Anne in 1711 who first saw the potential for a racecourse at Ascot (in those days called East Cote). Whilst out riding near Windsor Castle she came upon an area of open heath that looked, in her words, “ideal for horses to gallop at full stretch”.
The highlight of the year is Royal Ascot in June with five days of tradition, pageantry and style. Indeed Queen Anne's gift to racing, founding the Royal Racecourse, is marked by the tradition of opening Royal Ascot with the Queen Anne Stakes.
Outside of Royal Ascot, spectacular racing takes place throughout the year, each raceday offering a unique theme and atmosphere including the QIPCO King George Weekend in July, a Beer Festival in October and a Fireworks Spectacular in October, as well as four dedicated family racedays and much more. It’s a perfect family day out with free admission for all accompanied children under 18.
• Royal Ascot (Tuesday 16 to Saturday 20 June)
• QIPCO King George Weekend (Friday 24 and Saturday 25 July)
• Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup and Concert (Saturday 8 August)
• Italian Tourist Board Festival of Food & Wine Racing Weekend (Friday 4 and Saturday 5 September)
• Autumn Racing Weekend & Ascot Beer Festival (Friday 2 and Saturday 3 October)
• Four dedicated Family Days throughout the year (Sunday 29 March, Saturday 11 July, Saturday 31 October and Saturday 19 December).
