The festival gets underway with the always-popular Betfred Ladies Day, where, alongside top-class racing, ticket holders can enjoy all the glamour and excitement of the Style Awards judged by Mark Wright before he hits the decks for a high-energy post-racing DJ set.

Betfred Gents Day continues the party on September 11 with the historic Doncaster Cup, the oldest race still run under official rules, with the day topped off by Ellie Sax bringing her world-renowned Ibiza Anthems Live to the Party Enclosure.

Also taking place on the Friday is the Betfred Leger Legends Race, the only British charity race for former professional jockeys, which raises money for the Injured Jockeys Fund. Among the legends returning to the saddle is Frankie Dettori, his first race since October 2023.

Saturday will see the biggest day of the festival with the 250th anniversary running of the Betfred St Leger Stakes, the world’s oldest Classic and one of the most prestigious races in the British Flat racing calendar.
