Other Information
What to wear
Although there is no official dress code, smart is preferable and is often adopted. Aintree is a spectacle of colour for all three days of the festival, with many using their trip as an opportunity to showcase their favourite raceday outfits. Hats are optional too, but are frequently worn. Sports clothes and fancy dresses are not permitted for the Grand National meeting. Fancy dress is permitted as long as the outfit is not offensive, and at our discretion we reserve the right to decline entry should the need arise. Fancy dress is not permitted in Hospitality or restaurant facilities.
Transfers
Experiences include racecourse transfers (where stated). These are included on everyday that you book to attend the racing. Transfers depart your hotel with enough time to get to Aintree at gates opening, then depart around 45 minutes after the last race.
