Every year the Queen and other senior members of the Royal Family attend the meeting, arriving each day in a horse drawn carriage from Windsor Castle.

Five days of fashion, pageantry and glamour

The meeting at Royal Ascot is a highlight of the British social calendar and attended by over 300,000 people during the course of the week. The five days of the meeting comprise the most glamorous event in London’s sporting calendar and as much attention is paid to the fashion of the race goers as to the racing itself. The highlight of the week, for both racers and race-goers is Thursday. The fashion and millinery on show reaches new heights for Ladies Day and the feature race is the Gold Cup, a long distance battle of stamina for both horse and jockey and not for the faint-hearted.
