Victoria's Spring Racing Carnival showcases 50 days of world-class thoroughbred racing in a party atmosphere unmatched by any other Australian sporting event.
Incorporating 90 race meetings across the state, last year more than 715,000 people including many international and interstate visitors, attended the Spring Racing Carnival which injected over $513 million into the Victorian economy.
The Spring Racing Carnival puts Victoria on the international map with its high-quality racing and influx of international competitors and visitors each year. The BMW Caulfield Cup at Caulfield, Tatts Cox Plate at Moonee Valley and Emirates Melbourne Cup at Flemington highlight the carnival and are complemented by featured country meetings in all parts of Victoria.
The country racing experience is truly unique, with each country club offering a race day different to the next. The Spring Racing Carnival includes over 20 Country Cups at venues such as Ararat, Avoca, Ballarat, Benalla, Bendigo, Cranbourne, Donald, Dunkeld, Geelong, Kyneton, Mansfield, Manangatang, Moe, Murtoa, Sale, Seymour and Mt. Whycheproof.
While the undisputed heroes of the Carnival are the stars of the turf, the accompanying fashion frenzy that engulfs Melbourne during spring is truly spectacular. Colts and fillies alike relish the opportunity to frock up in their finest at racecourses all over the state.
There are also many other special attractions in Melbourne to keep you entertained while away from the track – from fashion shows to luxury lunches and dinners, there's something for everyone.
Whether it's the horses, the jockeys and trainers, the fashion, colour and glamour, or just a great day out, this year's Spring Racing Carnival will be bigger and better than ever.
The Spring Racing Carnival is officially launched in Melbourne on Wednesday 29 September and concludes with the running of the Ballarat Cup on Wednesday 17 November 2010.
