What to wear
Getting there
What to take
Whether it’s denim jackets or top hat and tails, Britain’s racecourses are open to many styles. The general rule is the more you spend on your ticket the more the dress requirements increase to reflect the importance of the occasion. However, many racecourses have Ladies Days which, regardless of Enclosure, people generally dress up for.

Dress codes are highlighted on the individual racecourse pages and sometimes dress requirements can be dependant on a particular meeting but, as a general rule, you can follow the following guidelines:

Members/Club/Premier
Smart dress, men are expected to wear a jacket and tie. Sometimes, this is required only if you’re eating in the restaurant.

Tattersalls/Grandstand/ Paddock
Smart Casual is preferred although sometimes jeans and trainers are allowed.

Silver Ring/Course/Picnic
Go casual, and if the weather is fine take a rug and enjoy yourself.

A useful tip….
Whilst there is plenty of seating around a racecourse, you generally do spend quite a lot of time on your feet - watching the horses in the parade ring, then going to place your bet, watching the race in the stand or chatting in the bar – so make sure you wear shoes which are comfortable!
