Ascot Racecourse is world-renowned for providing breathtaking horse racing events, delivering unforgettable experiences for everyone who attends one of our 26 annual racedays.
Founded in 1711, Ascot is rich in history and heritage and is proud to host the very best that racing has to offer. And it's not just racing that Ascot plays host to – a year-round calendar of non-racing events takes place across the estate, ranging from popular art fairs to jubilant parties, weddings and more.
The racecourse has the local community at its heart, launching Ascot Racecourse Supports in 2017 to combine its community and charity programmes under one umbrella.
