Whilst the Jockey Club has no formal dress code in place, many racegoers do like to dress up for the Festival. Cheltenham Racecourse is the Home of Jump Racing and The Cheltenham Festival is home to some of the finest racing in the world, and with the finest racing often comes the finest fashion.
Style is as individual as you. The Cheltenham Festival is the perfect occasion to wear your best outfits and favorite accessories. The weather can be unpredictable, so you're advised to dress accordingly.
Two-thirds of the car parks are on grass, so please bear this in mind and wear suitable footwear for the conditions.
During The Cheltenham Festival, fancy dress is not permitted in Hospitality, restaurant facilities, or in the Club Enclosure.
Fancy dress is permitted in other areas as long as the outfit isn't offensive.
