Ladies Day at The Bentley

The Bentley is hosting its own take on Ladies Day on Friday 9 April, bringing the Aintree race day vibe into the city. If you're not one for the trek out to the course, this is the version that lets you stay in town: the racing is shown live across big screens throughout the day, so you can follow the action without leaving the room.

It's built around the classic race day tropes. There's a glass of Prosecco on arrival, and Afternoon Tea is served from 12:30 PM, so you've got the food and drink sorted while the races run. The organisers describe it as hats, horses, glamour and a party atmosphere inside one of Liverpool's most beautiful venues, with the racing as the main event.

Between the races, there's live entertainment running all day from Michael Anthony and Jodie Clare, who'll be providing vocals and crowd favourites to keep the room buzzing. It's a full-day affair rather than a quick stop, so you can settle in and let the afternoon unfold.

Doors open at 12 PM and the day runs through until 9 PM, with the whole thing open to anyone aged 16 and over. General admission starts from £44. You'll find The Bentley at 50 Brunswick Street, Liverpool L2 0PL.
