Get ready for an unforgettable Melbourne Cup experience at the Railway Hotel! This year, we’re transforming our entire beer garden area into a lively and stylish party space, expertly styled by Goodness and Gracious Outdoor, to ensure the atmosphere matches the excitement of the big race. The newly opened beer garden bar will be exclusively for this event, giving you plenty of space to socialize, move around, and enjoy drinks while soaking up the vibrant race day energy. With limited tables and seating available, now’s the time to gather your friends, family, or colleagues for an extraordinary day out.
Start the day with delicious canapés as you wander through the space, mingling with other guests and enjoying the lively pre-race buzz. Then, take your seat for the main meal, where you can savor great food in the company of your group. After lunch, the fun continues with an assortment of cheese, biscuits, and sweets platters available as you settle in to watch the race that stops the nation live on our big screen.
Tables are limited to 10-12 people, making it perfect for businesses looking to book a table for the office, or groups of friends who want to celebrate together. If you're booking as a single ticket holder, don’t worry – you can still join in the fun! Just mention in the comments section who you'd like to sit with, and we’ll make sure you're seated with your friends. Secure your spot now to ensure you don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind Melbourne Cup event at the Railway Hotel – a day filled with style, fun, and a fantastic cause.
This is more than just a lunch – it’s a full Melbourne Cup experience designed to keep you entertained and engaged throughout the day. Whether you’re seated or standing, there’s plenty of room to move around and socialize while still staying close to the action. Sweeps will be running for those looking to add extra excitement to the race, and with the big screen right there, you won’t miss a moment of the thrilling spectacle.
No Melbourne Cup celebration is complete without some friendly competition off the track! Dress to impress because we’ll be awarding prizes for the best-dressed guests. Whether it’s a fabulous fascinator or a dashing suit, you could take home a prize for your race day outfit. Plus, we'll be running raffles with more chances to win throughout the event!
