New Zealand’s largest Melbourne Cup Day event returns to the ‘Big E’, bringing the thrill of live racing, top-tier hospitality, fashion, the iconic race from Flemington on the big screen and a party like nowhere else. Whether you’re toasting with Champagne in a hospitality precinct, getting amongst in The Hill Lawn or spending the day your way in public areas on course, this is the Melbourne Cup Day experience Auckland talks about.
General Admission is free—no ticket required. Tickets are required for all other areas.
