Experience the perfect pairing of world-class racing and craft beer at Ascot’s Autumn Racing Weekend & Beer Festival, held in association with CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale). This two-day celebration combines thrilling Flat racing with an incredible selection of over 160 beers, ciders and perries, plus plenty of delicious food options to satisfy every craving.
The penultimate meeting of Ascot’s Flat season promises excitement on and off the track. Friday’s highlight is the £100,000 Listed Noel Murless Stakes, a prestigious contest for promising young staying horses. Between races, explore the beer festival and sample an astonishing variety of real ales, ciders and perries, all curated by CAMRA.
Saturday delivers top-tier racing action with the Cumberland Lodge Stakes and Bengough Stakes, two competitive Group 3 contests. Plus, don’t miss the £180,000 BetMGM Challenge Cup, the richest seven-furlong handicap in the UK. With wine bars, curated cocktails and gourmet food stalls complementing the beer festival, this is the ultimate autumn raceday for racing fans and foodies alike.
