As anticipation builds for the prestigious Royal Ascot meeting, racegoers rendezvous to relish the warmer weather and the thrill of the track so we thought we should join them on the Saturday of Ascot’s Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% Racing Weekend. It promises a “convivial combination of high stakes racing entwined with an affable atmosphere” (their words not mine). On this very weekend, both summer and success can be tasted. Don’t miss out.
At the heart of this two-day spectacle lies the Victoria Cup, a prestigious seven-furlong heritage handicap. Renowned for attracting a diverse field of competitors, this race offers plenty of intrigue for racing enthusiasts and social racegoers alike. And once racing has finished, join us at the Bandstand for live music.
We are planning the King Edward VII enclosure where you can experience Ascot Racecourse premier public enclosure, with access to elevated viewing and additional bars on Level 4 of the Grandstand. Let’s get a group of DITD members together and have a fun Saturday out – just something different, who is joining us…?
Book your tickets through the link below, they are £39 for the King Edward VII enclosure then book on the event to be added to the WA group of members planning to go. Please WhatsApp Lisa if interested in mini bus. First race 1.10pm.
