Cheltenham Festival

Style Wednesday

Fast horses, slow fashion. The style is timeless and the glamour matches the glory.

On Style Wednesday, the elegance and glamour of Cheltenham Festival come alive, in a day that celebrates both the thrill of racing and the art of fashion.


Unmissable action on and off the turf

While the horses and jockeys battle it out on the track, the spectators dazzle in their finest attire, turning the grandstands into a parade of style and sophistication. The style awards add an extra layer of excitement, and a feeling of being part of something extraordinary.

From the sheer pace of the BetMGM Queen Mother Champion Chase to the rugged endurance of the Glenfarclas Cross Country Chase, every race on Style Wednesday is infused with the electric atmosphere of the crowd, who bring their own unique flair and spectacle to the day.

Whether you’re sipping champagne in a private box or enjoying the vibe from the grandstands, there’s a place for every style at Cheltenham.

Nothing feels like the blend of elegance and excitement on Style Wednesday at Cheltenham.
