Ascot gears up for a spectacularly fun Hallowe’en and top class racing this autumn
THE jumps season at Ascot Racecourse returns with a bang, the annual fireworks display just in time for a frightfully fun Hallowe’en amid top class racing featuring the Bateaux London Grade 3 Gold Cup Handicap Chase.
Racegoers on 29 October can expect plenty of spooky activities, entertainment and fairground rides, the community event in association with local philanthropic organisation Ascot Round Table providing a safe environment for families to enjoy the day’s racing and Hallowe’en fun. Ticket prices start from £30 online at https://www.ascot.com. The day’s racing and evening lift off of a breath-taking pyrotechnical show set to music, launching over 20,000 fireworks from the centre of the racecourse will light up the skyline and bring the curtain down on a spooktacular family day out.
Before the spooky goings-on begin Ascot Racecourse will host the finale of the British Flat season in the QIPCO British Champions Day (15 October). Leading horses and jockeys from across Europe and beyond are expected to descend on Ascot in their quest to be crowned the champions of 2022.
