What to Wear

There’s nothing like a race day to let your style shine and for you to enjoy the chance to dress up. Please be aware that the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby is an entirely outdoor event. We therefore suggest you check the weather forecast before leaving your home and dress for the weather. There will be no indoor seating during the day. While we hope for sunshine, you may need rain gear/warm clothes. Men – you do not have to wear ties, and jackets are not compulsory but smart casual is good and is the norm on most days. Ladies – Dress accordingly for the occasion and the weather.
