Royal Ascot

15 – 19 June 2027

Tuesday to Saturday · the Gold Cup on Thursday 17 June

i · Since

1807

The Gold Cup was first run in 1807, and ground set aside that year for King George III’s household began the Royal Enclosure. The Royal Procession dates from 1825.

ii · Thursday 17 June

The Gold Cup

About two and a half miles: Ascot’s oldest surviving race, and the winners keep the trophy. In 2026 Scandinavia beat the holder, Trawlerman, for Aidan O’Brien’s 100th Royal Ascot winner.

iii · The dress code

Hats on

Each enclosure has its own code. The Royal Enclosure is strictest: morning dress and top hats, formal day wear and a hat. Fascinators are fine in the Queen Anne; the Windsor has no formal code.

iv · Tuesday to Saturday

Five days

The Gold Cup on Thursday; the Commonwealth Cup and the Coronation Stakes on Friday; the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee on Saturday.

Royal Ascot: the evening and the after-party

After the last race the crowd gathers round the bandstand to sing, and the evening moves on to dinner in Windsor or back in London. Invitations to private parties are the hosts’ to give; the table, the car and the company for the evening are ours to arrange.
