There is no event in the social calendar quite as revered as Royal Ascot. After all, it’s reserved for the best; the best in racing, the best in hospitality – and, of course, the best in style. This is racing at its most exquisite. Nothing more, nothing less. From 17 – 21 June, thrill seekers and racegoers will come together to escape the ordinary and indulge in a week of celebration and festivities. Whether it be the sport, the fashion or the food that captures your imagination, there really is nothing quite like enjoying a British summer’s day at Royal Ascot.
Give in to temptation at one of the Michelin-starred restaurants, as Royal Ascot continues to blend world-class racing with exceptional dining experiences. This year’s collection of ‘Chefs in Residence’ will feature a remarkable lineup of Michelin-starred chefs, whose restaurants collectively hold an unprecedented 29 Michelin stars – the most ever for Royal Ascot or any sporting event worldwide.

Two new culinary talents, Yannick Alléno and Benoit Blin, join the esteemed roster this year, adding fresh perspectives and innovation to an already exceptional dining offering. Alléno, with 15 Michelin stars, debuts with an alfresco pop-up inspired by his London bar, Bar Antoine at Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane. Blin, a Master Pâtissier with over 30 years of expertise from Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons and the Ritz Paris, and judge on TV’s Bake Off: The Professionals, introduces an exclusive Royal Ascot Afternoon Tea. Together with the wider lineup of Chefs in Residence, each will present a unique menu – from delicate canapés to indulgent desserts – ensuring a memorable culinary journey that complements the occasion’s elegance.
Fine Dining at Royal Ascot remains a defining feature of the event, offering a culinary experience that reflects the excitement of this world-renowned sporting event. Royal Ascot hospitality is both a feast for the eye and the palate.
And you can win the chance to join us at summer’s most exclusive event with an exquisite package for two, worth over £1,000. Including access to the perfect spot to watch the Royal Procession journey up the track and see the horses racing past, you will win admission for two to the Village Enclosure with a three-course luncheon at a private table in the restaurant in The Village.
