The Dubai Cup is one of the most popular events in Ascot’s racing season with both on track and off track entertainment.

Renowned jockeys from across the world will join forces to compete to try and compete for the prize in the Dubai Cup.

The day will be closed with a concert which will be headlined by Craig David who returns to Ascot following a sell out event in 2017.

Craig’s set combines massive ‘old skool’ anthems from R&B to Swing beat, to Garage and Bashment, whilst merging current chart-topping house hits making TS5 a globally recognised party brand having toured the world with over 1.5 million people worldwide experiencing the show.

Melanie C will also make her Ascot debut alongside TV personality and radio DJ Marvin Humes.

The summer event will feature a thrilling six-race contest between competing teams divided into Great Britain & Ireland, Europe, The Ladies and the Rest of the World.
