Royal Ascot TV Channel

ITV Racing – sponsored by Paddy Power – is the place to be if you’re planning to watch Royal Ascot on your telly box. The coverage will be split across ITV and ITV4 because of the Euros.

The Opening Show (ITV4) presented by Oli Bell tees up the day from 9am to 10am on Tuesday to Friday. It’s a slightly later start time of 9.30am on Saturday.

Ed Chamberlin and the gang go live from Ascot Racecourse on every day of the meeting with coverage of all the races although ITV’s Euro 2020 coverage means the racing will be split over two channels.

Tuesday June 15 – 13:30-16:00 (ITV) & 15:55-18:30 (ITV4)
Wednesday June 16 – 13:30-18:00 (ITV) & 17:50-18:35 (ITV4)
Thursday June 17 – 13:30-18:35 (ITV4) & 16:10-16:30 (ITV)
Friday June 18 – 13:30–18:00 (ITV) & 17:50-18:35 (ITV4)
Saturday June 19 – 13:25–16:00 (ITV) & 15:55-18:35 (ITV4)
