We want you to thoroughly enjoy your day at Bath Races, which is why across most of the racecourse there is no formal dress code enforced. We want you to be comfortable, but we would encourage a smart casual outfit. There are more formal dress codes in place for some of the hospitality packages and Roof Garden.
