There is only one place to be this summer and that’s the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby at The Curragh Racecourse, Co Kildare. We will be celebrating the 150th running of the Irish Derby and we will be partying in style.
This three-day racing festival promises a spectacle of fashion, entertainment, music and the finest racing from 26th June to 28th June. The Derby is the ultimate destination to be enthralled and get swept up in the magic of an unmissable summer celebration with friends. Held across three days in the height of summer, it is unrivalled in its prestige and tradition and is most definitely the social occasion of the year.
FASHION
We will be seeking out the most stylish lady on Derby Day Sat 27th June. This year’s prize is worth €20,000 and the winner will walk away with a holiday of a lifetime to Dubai courtesy of Dubai Duty Free with €1,000 to spend at the multi-award-winning Dubai Duty Free as well as other spectacular prizes.
RACING
Some of the world’s top horses and jockeys will compete over all three days with the 150th running of Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby attracting the creme de la creme of the equine world.

The weekend will play host to an array of live bands and DJs as part of the 150th birthday celebrations.
