Description
Racing at Ascot began in 1711 when Queen Anne declared her love for horse racing. The first race was ‘Her Majesty's Plate' with seven horses competing. Over a century later, King George IV held the first royal carriage procession on the track to signal the start of the event. The collaboration with the Royal Family, high fashion and elite horse racing have continued ever since.
Royal Ascot 2021 is to form part of the second phase of the Government's events research programme with 12,000 racegoers to be admitted each day.
Royal Ascot takes Place from Tuesday, 15th June to Saturday, 19th June 2021.
