Royal Ascot Week
Tuesday 17th – Saturday 21st June 2008
(with Ladies Day at Ascot on Thursday 19th)
For the 6th year running we will be at Royal Ascot and are once again
offering all five days of Royal Ascot Week including Ladies' Day Thursday
- undoubtedly one of THE sporting events of the year. It's a great place
to spoil yourself and enjoy a fun day out!
Our Ascot day packages will provide a relaxing yet fun way of enjoying
a special day where you can enjoy our high level of service with a group
of friends or work colleagues. The atmosphere of the Royal meeting at
Ascot is always electric, with some fantastic races featuring some of
the most elite horses and jockeys in the world, stunning hats and outfits
and plenty of pimms.
NEW for 2008 we have a special group offer! Bring fifteen
people or more, booking before New Year’s Eve 2007 and enjoy a FREE organizer
place.

THE ITINERARY
Coaches will depart at 10am from Hammersmith (opposite the Tube Station). We arrive at Royal Ascot mid-morning when we'll open the bottles of bubbly and enjoy the festivities.
Whilst sipping your bubbly you can study the Racing Post and other racing form guides and decide who to back whilst we set up your delicious buffet lunch. Your meal will be freshly prepared using quality ingredients and will feature luxury deli-rolls and a choice of varied salads, plus strawberries and cream. This is accompanied by plenty of red or white wine and soft drinks which you can enjoy before making your way into the course for the day's racing. We are sure you will appreciate the setting of our new coach park which is just metres from the Silver Ring entrance.
The last race is at 5:30pm after which we ask you to return to the coaches promptly so that we can depart at 6pm for the journey back to London - arriving back around 7:30pm.
THE SILVER RING
Your package includes entrance to the redeveloped Silver Ring. This will provide a great location from which to watch the racing action and has a good view of the home straight. You can get right up to the rail to watch the horses close up, or enjoy the enclosure's atmosphere and facilities.
The Silver Ring also includes seating with good views of the track and large TV screens as well as live music, a large choice of bars and food stalls and toilets.
There is no enforceable dress code for the Silver Ring, but nearly everyone dresses up and it is traditional that ladies wear their summer dresses with hats etc. whilst men would normally wear a suit or blazer.
The race programme throughout the Royal Ascot festival is fantastic, but it's not just about the racing – it’s also a place to “see and be seen”, spot the Queen and generally enjoy a great party atmosphere.
Book tickets now for an exciting day out at Royal Ascot 2008.
