Cheltenham Festival 2023: Guests wow in hats, tartan and shamrocks

Cheltenham Festival today, March 17, marks its fourth day. It has been a busy week for equestrians, trainers, and guests – the latter of which have included a few famous faces, such as Carol Vorderman, Queen Consort Camilla, and Princess Anne. The Princess Royal is expected to attend the festival today too.

Yesterday, the racecourse saw many people arriving in fancy dress, and today was the same. A group of men donned green and black St Patrick’s hats to pose for a photo, while another man wore a green and yellow suit to celebrate the occasion.

His wasitcoat and bow tie were green and decorated with yellow shamrocks.

As for those not in fancy dress, key trends seemed to be tweed, tartan, and knee-high boots.

Lifestyle influencer Lydia Millen turned up in a long tweed coat over a white dress and a silk scarf.
