A star-studded red carpet at the VIP lawns

A star-studded red carpet at the VIP lawnsOur luxury VIP lawns and marquees attracted plenty of famous faces this year from the world of music, fashion and TV. The press and paparazzi were lined up along the red carpet to catch a glimpse of the celebrities as they arrived for a day of VIP treatment at the Duke of Essex Polo.

Arriving in style, were the much-loved TOWIE crew, who descended from the skies in our VIP helicopter, with celeb mate and glamour girl, Nicola McLean and Mel B's little sister, Danielle Brown.

Alex Reid bought along his own Essex sweetheart and Big Brother winner, Chantelle Houghton, who got saddled up to try their hand at a Polo shootout before the main event.

More Big Brother favourites, Nikki Graham and Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace could be spotted sipping champagne on the VIP lawns and DIY SOS star, Nick Knowles, took dressing to impress to a new level with a daring tartan suit.

VIP guests enjoyed a gourmet 4 course lunch designed by Masterchef judge, Gregg Wallace, who was there to make sure it passed the taste test!

Soap stars, Gary Lucy, Nathalie Emmanuel and Matt DiAngelo partied into the small hours in the Players marquee, where global DJ Judge Jules played the headline set of the night.

Gareth Gates showed us why he is still a star, with an exclusive performance in the Dukes Marquee during the evening sessions, to VIP partygoers including Dane Bowers and Bianca Gasgcoine.

OK TV's Lizzie Cundy was roaming the VIP lawns with the OK TV cameras, to get the latest scoop from our celebrity guests. View the video here.

The day was topped off by a special appearance from Peter Andre, who popped in for lunch, helped us present some amazing prizes as part of the VIP raffle and threw in the match ball to officially start the Polo Trophy match.
