Introduction

Prices start from £19

Saturday 6th October 2018

The penultimate day of our Flat racing season offers a high quality racecard and a choice of almost 200 different real ales, ciders and perries as the concourse is transformed to create one of the most comprehensive beer festivals in the UK, in association with the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA). This year Ascot has also joined forces with the Great British Gin Festival to showcase boutique gins from around the world. The gin festival is a selection of 80 gins, mostly not available in the main supermarkets.

Added oompah to your day comes from bratwurst, litre beer steins, lederhosen and traditional German music in the Ascot Bier Haus.

The feature action on the track comes in the shape of the richest seven furlong handicap in the UK, The Challenge Cup. The £180,000 contest is supported by six more highly competitive Flat races on the card. This is excitement on tap. You can also enjoy a curry in the Bandstand Bar and Restaurant.

Please note: Dress code remains the same as other racedays, but Lederhosen and Drndl's are permitted in the Queen Anne Enclosure.

Gates open at 11am.
