Has anyone been to the Horse Racing in Paris in October?

Question

I am going with my boyfriend in October & wondered if anyone had been and what they thought of it, What people wore? What the weather was like? any kind of information would be appreciated? also does anyone know where to get tickets from? online?

Answer 1

If you are lucky enough to be going to the Prix de'l arc de triomphe meeting at Longchamp the first weekend in October then out of many you could go to:

http://ticket-finders.com

http://arc-de-triomphe.co.uk/4598.html

to purchase tickets for the day or a weekend.

As to what to wear, well I would say the french are very chic so dress smartly.  

Sadly I have never been, but always watch on TV.  

The weather is usually autumnal so I would say just take a small umbrella just in case and enjoy the day.

Hope this is useful....x
