Friday Resimax Group Rapid Racing – the straight up fun starts from 3pm.

Get ready for the return of Rapid Racing at Flemington – your home of summer racing.

This shorter, punchier program will see seven sprints down the famous Flemington straight with a quick 30-minute gap between races starting at 3pm. It will be an exciting afternoon and a lovely evening of summer entertainment.

Head to the Front Lawn for live music all day long and after the last, plenty of food and drink options, a Pimm’s pop-up bar, and croquet. Saintly Place Sports Bar will be buzzing with live sports and $5 food specials as well as a Punter’s Club just outside on the Front Lawn.

Looking for somewhere to bring the kids? Enjoy the family friendly fun on the Flemington Front Lawn with lots of games and activities.

Members can enjoy food, drinks, and live music with friends. And after the last, the celebrations continue in The Roof Garden with a live DJ set.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the late start on Resimax Group Rapid Racing Race Day, only retail spaces will be available. The Byerley, Dining Room, Straight Six, The Grandstand and The Hill Stand will be closed.
