Melbourne Cup at Wharf Events

This Melbourne Cup, forget the ordinary and step into a day made for celebrating together. Wharf Events is transforming race day into a lively cocktail-style celebration with a focus on fun, fashion, and lasting memories.

Bring your friends, rally your family, or drag along the colleagues... cheer, laugh, and toast your way through the biggest race of the year. Big screens keep you close to the action, while the atmosphere brings everyone together: more party than posh.

Think stylish outfits, flowing drinks, lots of prizes up for grabs, and the excitement of sweeps for the race that stops the nation.

It’s the perfect excuse to dress up, capture photos you’ll love looking back on, and spend the day by the water in a space designed for socialising.

Bright, energetic, and full of Cup Day spirit.
