About
Celebrate Melbourne Cup Day at The National with two ways to enjoy all the action.
Join us on the First Floor for a relaxed two-course luncheon with a welcome drink, the race live on the big screen, sweepstakes and prizes for Best Dressed and Best Hat.
Or book the Rooftop Event for a more social Melbourne Cup experience, with antipasto and roaming canapés, a 3-hour drinks package including Leeuwin wines, sweepstakes, prizes and a post-race DJ. The race will be shown on the rooftop, although viewing will be limited.
Both ticketed events run from 11am–2pm, before the rooftop opens to the public for our Melbourne Cup After Party, with free entry and the DJ continuing until 5pm.
