In 2019, the Deighton Cup was excited to return the grand connection of the Marquee and Concourse, once again opening up the entire area as one complete VIP experience. Attendees had full inclusive access to traditional areas hosted by The Deighton Cup in year’s past including the Mile’s End Motors Field of Dreams, picnic area, cigar lounge & champagne stage.
Respected, enjoyed and anticipated by both drink professionals and enthusiasts. This year - the 7th annual mixology competition, was hosted at our Starting Gate Launch Party, and promised more unique takes on classic derby cocktails than ever before. The Boothby Julep Trophy was again up for grabs! As per usual, style, flavour and ingredients are championed by a panel of esteemed judges.
As one of the most fashionable events of the summer, The Deighton Cup is about stepping up your style game. Each year, the attendees vying for the Style Stakes push the fashion envelope in dressing to impress.
