Royal Ascot 2024 – how to watch, TV channel, streaming details and race times
With the world famous Royal Ascot meeting set to get underway, here is everything you will need to know ahead of the glamorous event which will take place this week
Summer is finally here – which means that racing’s most glamorous fixture, Royal Ascot, is here.
The racing world will turn its attention to the crown jewel of British horse racing for one of the biggest social events of the year. Five days of pulse-raising action will see 35 races take place, with the highlight being the iconic Gold Cup.
More than 250,000 racegoers are expected to attend the Berkshire track, which has hosted the event since 1711. Expect a star-studded array of celebrities to be in attendance ahead of a fixture that provides glitz, glamour and royal patronage like no other.
It is not yet known whether King Charles III, who attended every day of last year’s meeting, and Queen Camilla will attend to watch any of the horses they own. But The Mirror is here to provide any Royal Ascot questions you may have – including race times – with a record prize pool of £10million up for grabs.

All of the races will be broadcast live on ITV1 and ITV4, with The Opening Show aired on the latter at 9am on Tuesday 18 June. Coverage will also be available on Sky Sports Racing for subscribers.
