The Epsom Derby takes place each June in England. The first day is Ladies’ Day and the second is Derby Day. Epsom Derby tickets and discounts are easy to come by if you plan ahead.
The derby is one of the most important horse racing events of the year in the UK. In 2012, the Queen celebrated the first day of her Diamond Jubilee celebrations at the Derby.
Epsom Derby tickets are available online. Ticket prices range depending on the day and location of your ticket. They are least expensive in the the Lonsdale and Upper Tattenham Enclosures on Ladies’ Day and most expensive in the Queen’s Stand on Derby Day. Discounts are available for children, who go free in the Lonsdale and Upper Tattenham Enclosures and pay a discounted rate for the Queen’s Stand.
If you book before the end of the previous year, you can get a 25% discount on Grandstand tickets, and Queen’s Stand tickets at that year’s price. If you can’t get a discount on your tickets, consider attending on Ladies’ Day, when ticket prices are less expensive than on Derby Day.
Another way to get Epsom Derby ticket discounts is to make a group booking. Grandstand tickets are offered at a discounted rate if you buy group tickets for a given day.
