And many groups of friends have been seen posing for selfies to document the day.
Every year, the Surrey-based Epsom Downs Racecourse welcomes over 155,000 racegoers over the two-day racing bonanza.
While the popular Ladies' Day is taking place today, the world's greatest Flat race, the Epsom Derby, is roaring back into action on Saturday.
This year the event has been hit by yellow weather warning with thunderstorms and hail predicted to smash the famous track for the biggest race of the year.
There is no official dress code in the Grandstand enclosure at The Betfred Derby Festival, but attendees are encouraged to dress to 'feel your best.'
The website advises outfits can be anything 'from bright and bold to subtle and sophisticated.'

They added: 'This is racing's most spectacular carnival, after all.'
However, some clothing items are banned.
The racecourse prohibits 'inappropriate or offensive outfits' or sports clothes featuring 'team colours" or 'team kits.'
While the main areas of the racecourse are more relaxed, those with tickets for the Queen Elizabeth II Stand, will have to follow a formal dress code.

It adds: 'You must wear formal day dress or a tailored trouser suit, with a hat or fascinator.'

The iconic race is taking place on Saturday June 1 at 4.30pm BST and fans can watch the race live on ITV1 and Racing TV.

Stacey Dooley slammed by ‘disappointed' fans after announcing ‘grim deviant' Lily Phillips as star of new TV series
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) STACEY Dooley has been slammed by fans after announcing Lily Phillips as one of the stars of her new TV series. The presenter's iconic show, Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over, is returning to the UK very soon for series six. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Stacey Dooley has left fans totally divided after announcing Lily Phillips as the star of her new TV series Credit: U&Original 4 The first episode of the sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over will follow the controversial OnlyFans creator Credit: Olivia West 4 Many were horrified by the news and expressed their "disappointment" Credit: BBC There will be three brand new episodes, whereby Stacey, 38, will meet three families, including controversial OnlyFans creator Lily Phillips, 23. Posting on social media, U&Original took to Instagram to share the news - but it's left people totally divided. Alongside a snap of the red-haired presenter and the sex worker, who is known for bedding 101 men in just one day and recently completed a horrifying sex challenge in a bid to one-up Bonnie Blue, the channel penned: 'She is BACK! '3 families, 3 fascinating episodes, you're gonna love it.' While some were 'interested' by the idea of seeing Lily on their screens, others were stunned to see the show giving Lily, who recently sparked outrage after posting with her 'oldest fan' in a 'vile' stunt, a platform. The post has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 3,646 likes and 67 comments. One person gasped: 'Pretty grim giving that deviant airtime, not a single positive thing can come from the trainwreck of her life, screams if the worst click bait, expected better tbh.' Whilst another sighed: 'Really disappointing, just don't think Stacey Dooley should be promoting or giving this girl a platform. 'Lowest derivative entertainment, a real regression in content from you Stacey.' Meanwhile, a third joked: 'If she is sleeping over at Lilly Phillips' gaff I strongly suggest she gets the sheets fumigated!" Woman claims her dad was in 'homewrecker' Lily Phillips' sex challenge But at the same time, one TV fan wrote: 'Omg wow this will be so interesting!!!!' And another chimed in: 'Can't wait to watch it!' Viewers will see the Brit sex worker, who was recently slammed as 'fake' after fans spotted an issue with one of her many sick stunts, in the first episode of the sixth series, which is produced by Firecracker Films. Pretty grim giving that deviant airtime, not a single positive thing can come from the trainwreck of her life Instagram user Overjoyed at the news of the news episodes, Stacey Dooley beamed: 'I'm thrilled to be back for another series of Sleeps Over! 'Truly, it's such a loved format and people always remind me of their fave moments when I'm out and about. Former porn star shares advice for Lily Phillips LILY Phillips is a name many of us now know, thanks to her controversial plan to bed 1,000 men in 24 hours. The OnlyFans star is hoping to break the world record with the endeavour - a record currently held by adult film star Lisa Sparks, with 919 men. But adult film star Jasmin St. Claire - who's most famous for having sex with 300 men in 24 hours for X-rated 1996 film The World's Biggest G**g Bang II - has issued a word of warning to the 23-year-old to ensure she's regularly tested for sexually transmitted diseases. "I get a lot of OnlyFans girls on my podcast ... and the one common story is all of the different STD outbreaks in the business," Jasmin explained. "Like, I've never heard of half this stuff in my life. I'm like, holy s**t. Can a doctor from India cure that? "Like, seriously, because these are some weird things." 'We've got another three episodes that you're gonna love! The themes we touch on feel incredibly timely. 'As always, a sincere thank you to those families who agree to open their doors. Strap in!' Meanwhile, Emile Nawagamuwa, one of the show's commissioners, explained: 'The sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over demonstrates the remarkable strength of Stacey's appeal as a documentarian and this simple, compelling concept. 'It has been three years since Stacey last slept over in the homes of UK families, and more people than ever have proudly chosen to break the rules and live life according to their own unique values. This series is going to be a cracker Jes Wilkins, Firecracker Films 'This series promises to be more eye-opening and enlightening than ever.' At the same time, Jes Wilkins from Firecracker Films added: 'To be making a sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over in the current commissioning climate is one of the proudest achievements of my career and it's a testament to a wonderful creative and commercial partnership with Stacey and everyone at UKTV. 'This series is going to be a cracker.' The sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over will air on U and U&W later this year. All episodes of previous series are available to stream for free on U.

Shooter game played by 10 million people closing down on smash-hit consoles in two weeks – but fans say it's GOOD news
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A POPULAR video game played by millions of people is shutting down on select consoles. The shooter title is now just weeks away from being killed off on certain machines – and fans say it's actually good news. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 The First Descendant is closing down on older consoles Credit: Nexon / The First Descendant 6 PS4 players will no longer be able to enjoy the title Credit: Sony PlayStation 6 The game is also being killed off on Xbox One machines Credit: Microsoft Xbox Gamers using a PS4 or Xbox One to play The First Descendant will soon be blocked from playing. The studio behind the game say it'll stop working on those machines on June 19, 2025. And the only way to keep playing will be to upgrade to a machine that still offers support for it. That includes the PS5, Xbox Series X or S, or Windows PCs. "Our team does experience difficulties maintaining the PS4 and Xbox One builds," the developers at Nexon explained. "So to concentrate all our resources and capabilities for the new content for Season 3 and beyond, we made this decision. "The planned termination date is June 19, and after the June 19 update, you won't be able to play The First Descendant with PS4 or Xbox One. "But your account information will stay with us since TFD is an online game and supports cross-progression with Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S." The First Descendant is currently less than a year old, which makes the closure all the more shocking. It's a free massively-multiplayer online game that sees empowered 'Descendants' battling alien baddies known as the Vulgus – and has boasted more than 10 million players. Get an inside look at the new PS5 30th anniversary edition Gamers will complete quests, collect loot, and build their characters to have different power specialties. After the closure, some players will be locked out from enjoying the title. But many fans reacted to the news with understanding, even describing it as a good thing. In a Reddit thread about the change, hundreds of fans upvoted the news and said it would allow the game-maker to spend more time making the title even better. 6 It's been less than a year since The First Descendant was released Credit: Nexon / The First Descendant One said: "That's fair. They probably want to do bigger stuff with the game." Another wrote: "Y'all gotta let the PS4 go and upgrade." And one added: "It's because the PS4 hardware limitations are limiting the scope of the game design. The dev team want to do more, so they're choosing to leave PS4 players behind. "Clearly they've weighed up the revenue they're getting from PS4 players and are happy to lose that portion. It bodes well for the future of the game to be honest." 6 Game-makers say they want to focus on developing the game for the latest consoles Credit: Nexon / The First Descendant 6 Fans reacted positively to the news – despite the imminent closure Credit: Nexon / The First Descendant GOING RUSTY It comes just days after another multiplayer game began closing down on older consoles. As of May 29, survival title Rust is no longer available to download for new players on PS4 and Xbox One. And the game will be switched off on those older machines in October this year. Players will need to upgrade to the PS5 or Xbox Series X/S versions of the title to keep playing. OTHER GAME CLOSURES COMING UP Here's what to watch out for... MultiVersus - May 30 xDefiant - June 3 The First Descendant - June 19 Black Desert - June 26 Resident Evil ReVerse - June 29 Madden NFL 21 - June 30 Arizona Sunshine - July 1 Skyworld - July 1 Danmachi Battle Chronicle - September 29 WWE 2K24 - September 30 Madden NFL 22 - October 20 PGA Tour 2K21 - October 30 NBA 2K24 - December 31 This upgrade will be available for free – but you'll still need a newer console to actually enjoy the game. It's also now no longer possible for new players on PS4 and Xbox One to enjoy the game without getting an upgraded console.

I'm a single mum and got £4.3k in UC this month – I've run out of cash & am begging people to donate to my boob job fund
Scroll down to find out how much cash Bonnie has raised towards her £2,200 boob job so far BROKE BOOST I'm a single mum and got £4.3k in UC this month – I've run out of cash & am begging people to donate to my boob job fund Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A SINGLE mother has claimed that she got paid more than £4,300 this month in Universal Credit, but has already run out of money. As a result, Ebony Wood, 26, who is currently not working and is living off of benefits, is now begging strangers online for cash.

The young mother, who calls herself Bonnie and lives in a council property, shared a short clip on social media and wrote: 'I've ran out of Universal Credit, donate to my GoFundMe.' Clapping back to taxpayers, Bonnie filmed herself cleaning her filthy kitchen sink and said: 'I might be a single mum on Universal Credit, but at least I'm not dumb. 'You lot literally have to work 40 hours a week to get half of what I get - I literally get given £4,000 a month from the government.' While Bonnie asked trolls to 'stop putting hate' in her comments, she showed off her messy home and slammed: 'If it wasn't for you lot working full time and paying taxes, I would not even have these grey Tommy Hilfiger leggings.' But moments later, in response to a comment that accused her of lying about her Universal Credit payments, which are given to UK residents with a low income or those who need help with their living costs, Bonnie shared a screenshot of what she claimed to be her most recent payment - a hefty £4,320.98. In response to the hater, who blamed her for spreading 'rage bait' content online, Bonnie said: 'Why would I lie? That's what I got paid like two weeks ago. 'Don't be jealous because I get given double what you earn in a month - I practically get your monthly wages in a week.' On Bonnie's profile, she has since shared a link to her GoFundMe page, whereby she is asking the public to donate to her boob job fund. She has an ambitious target of £2,200 and at the time of writing, had raised just £10 thanks to two donations. Debunking Myths: Life on Universal Credit While she can't afford to pay for the surgery herself, the mother claimed that she 'deserves to feel good' but stressed that getting the cosmetic work done 'isn't about vanity'. Social media users fume The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @bonniedontcare, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 344,000 views, 7,503 likes and 1,351 comments.
