Dress Code at Goodwood
Goodwood lives and breathes
quintessential English style.
At Goodwood we want you to get the most from your day and encourage you to wear what makes you feel unique, but comfortable, whilst paying particular attention to what the day's weather has in store. Ladies can find fashion inspiration with The Goodwood Look.

Richmond Enclosure
Our most stylish and exclusive enclosure
Gentlemen are required to wear a jacket accompanied by a tie, cravat or polo-neck sweater. Boys aged 7-15 years are kindly encouraged to wear a collared shirt.
Ladies are encouraged to dress stylishly but with a relaxed feel. A floaty dress or an elegant top and trouser/skirt combination will suit any of our racedays. We do suggest that you leave your stiletto heels at home, as the uneven ground can be tricky to walk on.
All: Jeans, trainers, shorts and fancy dress are not permitted.

I came here three years ago but once you’re bitten, you have to come back. It is always atmospheric here, it doesn’t matter what the weather conditions are, it is always a memorable day. Everything about Goodwood is done for love, it’s been crafted lovingly over centuries.
There are some amazing racecourses around the world, but without fail you feel like you’re in one of the most special.
The Qatar Goodwood Festival is a beautiful week and Goodwood is the most picturesque racecourse in the country.
