One fan penned: "Will jackets still be mandatory throughout the racecourse? Or will that rule be relaxed?"
The anouncement was made on Twitter
The exciting event usually adheres to a strict system of rules where drinks are only permitted in certain Enclosures.
According to the 2020 rules, the official website explains: "No food, drinks or snacks are permitted to be brought into the Royal Enclosure, Village Enclosure or Queen Anne Enclosure," in order to provide racegoers with an "outstanding experience."
The star-studded event has already seen countless A-listers and royals in attendance such as the Countess of Wessex and Princesses Beatrice, but there are questions as to whether the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will attend.

Contrary to the royal family's infatuation with horses, the event is not a favourite of the royal pair. This is in part due to the fact that the Duchess is actually allergic to horses.
Kate made the admission back in 2009 when Australian author Kathy Lette asked why she wasn't playing polo, prompting her to make the confession.
The royals have missed the first two days of the five-day event as they were out on other engagements.

On Tuesday, the pair made a heartfelt appearance in West London, to mark the fifth anniversary of the Grenfell Tower fire, in which 72 people lost their lives.
The Duke and Duchess watched a multi-faith service take place, organised by Grenfell United.
Before the service, the royals met privately with survivors of the fire and those who lost loved ones.
At the end of the memorial, they were invited to lay wreaths and flowers to pay tribute to those who lost their lives.
