QIPCO King George Diamond Weekend 2025
Join us at one of the biggest days of the year at Ascot for the QIPCO King George Diamond Weekend 2025.
With the summer weather making the Ascot racecourse pristine, the first day of the King George Diamond Weekend offers a thrilling afternoon of racing.
The highlight of the weekend is the Group 1 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth QIPCO Stakes, Europe’s indisputable midsummer middle-distance showpiece. The race has seen many a great crowned victorious, including Nijinsky, Mill Reef, Brigadier Gerard, Shergar, Nashwan, Galileo and of course the mighty Enable, the only three-time winner.
Taking place just after Royal Ascot, the event is a brilliant option to get a similar standard of racing, but slightly more relaxed in atmosphere.
Like Royal Ascot, the King George Diamond Weekend has become a showcase of contemporary summer style, with Ladies encouraged to wear hats.
