Celebrate the season in style at Ascot’s midsummer marvel. Prepare to unpack your picnic on the pristine lawns and tuck into an action-packed afternoon of fun and thrills.
With the Flat season in full bloom, the Racing to Zero Summer Mile Weekend is a celebration of speed, skill, sun-kissed days and sustainability.
Throughout the racecourse, you’ll find vibrant community and environmental showcases as part of our Racing to Zero strategy to reduce the environmental impact of our events.
Back at the track, one of the most important mile races of the season takes place on the Saturday. The Group 2 Summer Mile Stakes often attracts some of the protagonists from Royal Ascot as well as those with loftier ambitions ahead. Mohaather won this in 2020 before going on to Group 1 glory while Master Of The Seas was a classy winner in 2023 who went on to win at the Breeders’ Cup.
Tickets from £19 on Friday and from £24 on Saturday
