Melbourne Cup at Cloudland

Feel like royalty for a day at Cloudland, the place to be this Melbourne Cup for the biggest celebration of fashion, food and racing Brisbane has ever seen.

Spread over three massive levels, guests can indulge in sparkling drinks and delectable food, frock up for Fashions on the Field, and be entertained by live music, DJs, installations, photo moments and some very special 'royal' guests; with two fabulous race day packages to choose from.

Cloudland’s Birdcage Garden Party is set to be one of the biggest parties of the year spanning across two levels: Madame Hedges on the ground level and Crystal Palais on the mezzanine level. Patrons can indulge in a refreshing range of Spritz from the race day Spritz Station, French sparkling, premium wines, tap beers, cider and more; while delicious food on offer includes a charcuterie station, paella station plus a fantastic array of hot and cold canapés. 

Upgrade your group to an exclusive G.H. Mumm Crystal Palais Race Day Booth featuring a G.H. Mumm race day hamper (magnums of Mumm and deluxe cheese board) to kick-start your Melbourne Cup Day celebrations. 

For something more sophisticated, the G.H. Mumm Gala Luncheon in Cloudland's Rockefeller-inspired Rainbow Room and Terrace on the top level, offers free-flowing champagne, a tantalising sit-down meal, time-honoured race day traditions and unexpected,  lavish surprises.

This gala luncheon includes gourmet canapes on arrival before guests are seated for an indulgent three-course meal served with Mumm champagne, premium wine, beer and more; with a live performance by the Millenium Band.

In addition, there'll  be the usual race day festivities like live racing on giant screens, sweeps, and Fashions on the Field with amazing prizes for best dressed Duke and Duchess and Best Race Day Hat. Plus, the party continues long after the big race has finished and well into the night with Cloudland's resident band La bOum performing live.  

Last year's Melbourne Cup events at Cloudland sold out fast so don't delay and book now.
