Fashion, horses and fun at the Werribee Cup

The Picklebet Werribee Cup is back on Sunday 7 December and it’s shaping up to be one of the biggest days on the Wyndham community calendar.

With free entry for kids and free kids’ activities running all afternoon, it’s the perfect chance for families to settle in for a huge day of action and live entertainment without blowing the budget.

Kids not only have free admission but will enjoy unlimited access to the giant inflatable challenge, facepainting, giveaways and plenty of space to run around. A picnic rug and a few snacks are all you need to enjoy the sprawling lawns and easy Cup Day atmosphere, or you can let the food trucks tempt you with sweet and savoury treats.

For adults, general admission is just $25. Booking online gives you express scan entry at the gates, which means you can skip the queues and get straight inside and into the fun.

Get together with friends and family to cheer home the feature races, enjoy live entertainment and try your luck in the Picklejar Kick for Cash for a share of $10,000 (entrants 18 years+). Land your kick in the giant Picklejar and you could walk away with a serious payday.

Werribee Racing Club general manager Adam Wilkinson said his staff have been looking forward to Cup Day for months and cannot wait to welcome guests on course.

“Our team has been so excited to plan such a great day for our local community, with something for everyone to enjoy across a jam-packed afternoon,” he said.

Most hospitality packages have now sold out, which shows how strongly the community has backed this year’s Cup. A small number of tickets remain in The Bridge Hotel Marquee, which bundles your admission, exclusive marquee access, elevated views of the home straight, lounge style furniture, a delicious feed by the Bridge Hotel, live music and five hours of drinks. It’s fantastic value and a genuine ‘walk in, don’t bring a thing’ option where your entire race day is sorted in just a few clicks.
