With the Canberra Day long weekend fast approaching, why not celebrate in style at the 50th anniversary of Canberra’s premier race, Black Opal Stakes Day at Thoroughbred Park?

Held on Sunday 12 March, it will be a huge day on the track with the unrivalled thrill of thoroughbred racing joined by heaps of events, entertainment and food teed up to get you pumped for each race. Partnering with some of the best businesses in the Canberra region, in between races attendees can chill at the Underground Spirits Gin lawn or grab a bite at one of the premium food vans including Grease Monkey and Spit Shack. DJs and music will also be playing throughout the day, along with two massive giveaways and the annual Fashions on the Field determining who’s sporting the classiest race day look.

Looking to get a group together? Choose an elevated experience in one of the hospitality areas and enjoy inclusions such as beverage packages, a 4-course meal or hamper, TAB facilities and Private amenities. Or join Grazing Restaurant at Gundaroo in their premium marquee.

And, when the final race is over, head down to The RUC in Turner for the official after-party for kick ons!
