Welcome to the 2024/25 Racing Season at Flemington!

Get ready for an exhilarating year of world-class racing, gourmet cuisine, and premier entertainment. The 2024/25 racing season kicks off in style with the VRC Season Premiere Race Day at HQ.

Gates Open: 11:30 am
First Race: 12:20 am
Last Race: 5:02 pm

Join us for this much-anticipated event, where Melbourne Cup Carnival hopefuls begin their quest for glory in the Spring features. It is the perfect start to a spectacular season at Flemington!

The Group 3 Aurie's Star Handicap (1200m) feature has historically been a steppingstone to stakes-race success for horses including So Si Bon, I Am A Star and Temple Of Boom, and The Astrologist; not to mention future Group 1 winners Voodoo Lad, Hey Doc, Niconero and Fields Of Omagh. Last year’s edition was taken out by Flemington straight specialist IT'SOURTIME - who will take out this year's honours?

What's On this Saturday?

VRC Punters Club

Located in The Atrium (Members) and in Saintly Place Sports Bar (General Admission) for this Saturday's VRC Season Premiere Race Day.

The VRC Punters Club has become a Flemington favourite and the best part is anyone can join and it is only $10!
