For all those wishing to book Melbourne Cup Carnival hospitality this year, there are very few options available if you have booked previously in The Winning Post Enclosure, as their is no Winning Post Enclosure the new area in there is much smaller and only being offered as a sole use facility a minimum of 50 people. I will give a brief overview of a couple but availability is limited as so little product is being offered.
The Furphy Deck
It is the entry level product with cocktail food includes a beer and wine package. Bear in mind this product offers no protection from the elements apart from umbrellas, great if it is fine weather. Cup Day Sold Out other days available but numbers are limited.
The Riverside Bar & Bistro
A new facility is the Riverside Bar and Bistro it will be ok but please note you will only have 2 races actually run past you live on Cup and Derby days, one on other days as it is located on the back turn past the post and before the barriers on all but races over 2400M.
So if you are a keen Punter you are probably not going to be happy here. That is despite what the information says on the website see every race up close, well you will after all but two races are finished. Cup Day $970pp.
Makybe Diva Marquee
Good location with views over the track (not from in the marquee though) been around for 10+ years plated menu with beer and wine package. Cup Day $1200 very limited numbers. Other days still available.
The Parade Lounge
Is located adjacent to the Parade Ring and is a cocktail format with beverage package including Beer, Wine and soft drinks. Is a great location but viewing can be a bit hard as it is all one level unless your on the outside of the balcony but a great spot, close to everything. The price is $1125pp.
The Rose Room
An upmarket temporary restaurant built for the Cup Carnival, terraced tables of 12 and 12 giving views across the track. Located behind glass with a 5 course degustation menu from the Winning Post Enclosure caterer Atlantic Group. Offers standard spirits, beer wine and soft drinks. Has access to an outside viewing area on ground in front of marquee but not a deck as the Winning Post had.
There are other options above $1200 per person available.
To book any of these go to the the VRC website or Ticketmaster.
