Why the Yarra Valley? Racing in the Yarra Valley - It s a wonderful thing. It s a chance to road-test your new frock, polish those cufflinks and soak up the sun, cheering on a winner as the field thunders down the home straight. Squeeze a cheeky breakfast mimosa in there somewhere and you ve got the recipe for a perfect weekend. But Yarra Valley Racing isn t just another day at Flemington or Caulfield. This is country racing with a pinch of glam, which means rural character, proper service, farm-fresh produce, and local wines that ll have you seriously considering a tree change. We don t do jam-packed crowds, and we don t do car park gridlock. For us, racing s better when it s stress-free, fun and family-friendly. Queueing an hour for taxis isn t really our idea of a good time. After dining and hospitality packages? We ve got everything from a market umbrella to custom-built corporate marquees, complete with TVs, roving canapés and an open bar. Get comfy with a three-course lunch in the Grand Stand, sip a Shiraz in your private enclosure, or plonk yourself on the lawn with a gourmet, preprepared picnic hamper (courtesy of our in-house chefs). Whatever your track style, you can take it easy: a day at the Yarra Valley Races means you ve already picked a winner. Everything else is just gravy. 3
Christmas Harness Races Harness a little excitement! Call your dry cleaner and tell them to clear their schedule you want to look sharp for this one. Liven up your Summer afternoon spending time at the Yarra Glen Racecourse (maybe you can turn it into a winning one!). Or simply enjoy the view from our Yarraview Dining room, overlooking the racecourse and mountains while having a bite to eat and passing time with colleagues, friends or family.
