2010 Royal Ascot - applications now closed

Each year the New Zealand High Commission receives an allocation of tickets to three Royal Events: Trooping the Colour (Colonel's Review and Queen's Birthday Parade), the Royal Garden Parties and the Royal Race meeting at Royal Ascot.

The tickets are intended for New Zealand citizens who are visiting or residing in the United Kingdom. Partners and spouses of New Zealand citizens who hold residency permits for New Zealand may apply to accompany a New Zealand citizen.

Due to the limited number of invitations allocated to the New Zealand High Commission for each event, a ballot system is used. Please note the Royal Garden Party may only be attended once.

Once allocated, tickets cannot be transferred between days or to another person. Regrettably, depending on the number of applicants, some may not be successful, however unsuccessful applicants are reminded that they may apply again the following year.

Applications for the 2010 Royal Garden Parties, the Queen's Birthday Parade and Colonel's Review and the Royal Enclosure at Ascot have now closed.  

Further information on attending Royal Events can be found in the Living in the UK section under New Zealanders Overseas.
