Tickets now on sale for the historic 150th Sportsbet Caulfield Cup Carnival

Tickets are now on sale for the historic 150th Sportsbet Caulfield Cup Carnival, giving racegoers the opportunity to secure their place at one of the biggest celebrations in the event's history while saving 40 per cent during the General Admission pre-sale.

Following last year's sell-out Sportsbet Caulfield Cup Day, Melbourne Racing Club is encouraging racegoers to secure their place early for this year's milestone Carnival, which celebrates the 150th running of one of Australia's great races.

Alongside the milestone celebrations, racegoers will also have two new experiences to choose from, continuing Melbourne Racing Club's focus on evolving the race day experience.

Melbourne Racing Club Chief Executive Officer Tanya Fullarton said the milestone year presented an opportunity to celebrate the rich history of the Caulfield Cup while continuing to enhance the raceday experience.

"The response to this year's Carnival has already been incredibly encouraging, with several premium experiences either sold out or selling strongly. We're expecting strong demand for the 150th running of the Sportsbet Caulfield Cup, so we're encouraging racegoers to take advantage of the 40 per cent pre-sale offer and secure their tickets early."

"For 150 years the Caulfield Cup has created unforgettable sporting moments. Today, it's also one of Melbourne's great spring events, bringing together elite racing, hospitality, fashion and entertainment. We're expanding the Carnival experience with new ways for people to enjoy a day at Caulfield, whether they're coming for the racing, celebrating with friends or soaking up the atmosphere," said Fullarton.

Shaped by feedback from racegoers and changing expectations, the new experiences offer more choice while remaining close to the atmosphere and excitement of the Carnival.

The expanded offering is designed to appeal to an even broader audience, particularly younger racegoers and women, by combining world-class racing with premium hospitality, entertainment and social experiences.

Making its debut in 2026, Club Chandon Spritz brings a relaxed garden party atmosphere to Caulfield, creating a vibrant social destination where groups can enjoy spring racing with premium hospitality in the heart of the General Admission precinct.

New for 2026, Hard Rated Reserve offers racegoers an elevated trackside base, combining strong racecourse views, dedicated amenities and close access to the post-race entertainment.

Tickets: General Admission tickets are now 40 per cent off during pre-sale, with premium race day experiences also on sale at mrc.racing.com.
