WHERE HORSEPLAY LIVES

Come and PLAY with us at Ascot Racecourse as we launch the 2019/20 Ascot Racing Carnival with Crown Perth Opening Day. 

A highlight of Crown Perth Opening Day is the fabulous Myer Fashions on the Field competition. Dress up and have your photo taken by one of the Myer Fashions on the Field representatives located on course. You could be the lucky winner and receive a trip of a lifetime representing Western Australia as part of the 2019 Melbourne Cup Carnival at Flemington.

Also new to Ascot Racecourse this year are our Family Days, running once a month from Crown Perth Opening Day through to May 2020. Enjoy the beautiful Perth sunshine with plenty of activities to keep the young ones (and the young at heart) entertained, including bouncy castles, pony rides, life-sized games, family sports challenges and more!

Book into our new and exclusive event - The Chute - located in our stunning trackside marquee with spectacular views. You'll be in the midst of all the action with an excellent value food and beverage package, entertainment and lots of horseplay.

Take a look at our dining and hospitality options below and get ready to enjoy a great day out at Ascot Racecourse - where horseplay lives.
