Dress Code
Dress Codes and Inspiration
Richmond Enclosure
Gentlemen (and boys aged 16 and over) are required to wear a suit jacket, long sleeved collared shirt and a tie, along with full-length trousers, to all 19 racedays. Women should wear smart attire, suitable for a day at the races. For the warmer fixtures think summer garden-party: a floaty, floral dress, or an elegant top and trouser/skirt combination. For the cooler racedays, dress for the weather by layering up. A tweed jacket paired with boots is the perfect combination to keep you warm.
Sportswear and fancy dress is not permitted.
Children should also dress in smart attire. Boys aged 7-15 years are asked to wear a long sleeved collared shirt (no polo shirts). The dress code is not applicable to children under 7 years.

During Qatar Goodwood Festival, all racegoers are encouraged to dress in a smart and elegant way, bringing a sense of style suited to the occasion of racing at Goodwood.
This dress code applies to the following hospitality areas within the Gordon Enclosure: Sussex Roof Garden and Sussex Lounge Club.

Hospitality
Hospitality guests must follow the dress code for the Richmond Enclosure: Gentlemen are required to wear a suit jacket, long sleeved collared shirt and a tie to all 19 racedays.
