Let’s get ready to paaaaaarty!!

It was always a sell-out in years gone by before COVID put a spanner in the works, but if you haven’t heard, The Paddock brought to you by The Grand Tour Racing Festival, is the place to be this Boxing Day Races.

​If you’re wanting to spend your time trackside with mates, great tunes, pop-up food & chilled drinks to keep you cool under the summer sun (oh, check out some horse racing in the background), this is the precinct for you.

Located on the Barrett Lawn, we’ll have DJs including Pixie Lane and Bon Tempo on the decks making this day one for the books.

Pssst……The Paddock also plays host to the day’s afterparty so you won’t have any reason to move after the last.
