The King's Plate is Toronto's can't-miss event of the summer, where the most prestigious horse race in Canada is celebrated with a thrilling day filled with fashion, food, betting, and exclusive experiences.
Steeped in royal history, The King's Plate has been named in honour of the reigning monarch since its inception in 1860. The Canadian-bred Thoroughbred to win the $1 million (CAD) race also receives a symbolic fifty guineas from Buckingham Palace.
Ranelle Larocque of Queen Bee Millinery will once again share her hat and fascinator creations and race day style advice this year as The Official Milliner of The King's Plate.
