Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival
Victoria’s Spring Racing Carnival is a breathtaking celebration covering 50 days
of world-class metropolitan and country racing. It’s Australia’s biggest sporting event and
captures the interest of the nation like no other. Held at al Melbourne's Metropolitan Race
Courses including Flemington, Moonee Valley, Caufield and Sandown.
Whether for you it’s the horses; the jockeys and trainers; the fashion, colour
and glamour, or just a great day out, this year’s carnival will be bigger and better than ever
before and you are invited to be a part of it. Last year, almost 660,000 people attended Spring
Racing Carnival meetings.
The Spring Racing Carnival well and truly puts Victoria on the international
map. Not only do races such as the Carlton Draught Caulfield Cup, Carlton Draught Cox Plate and
Emirates Melbourne Cup stop the nation, they are increasingly stopping the world.
The many country racing events held in all corners of the State bring communities together and
offer so much more than a day at the races.
