A Super Saturday of fun at the races

ENJOY a fabulous family day out in Geelong with Geelong Racing Club at the course’s first metro grade race day on January 6, 2024.

The club has a range of hospitality options available for you to sit back and let them do the work. Choose from an umbrella, dining or marquee package, and celebrate summer at the races in style.

Apart from the top tier level of racing, there will be heaps of family and community-based activities to enjoy as well.

Bring the whole family along for some fun at a free children’s zone including carnival rides, petting zoo, water park, pony rides, Kelly Sports Activities and much more.

There will also be some fabulous live entertainment, including headline DJ, Tom Santa, who will host the insight after party from 5-7pm.

Piccadilly Makers Market will be in full swing where you can browse through some great local products and produce, or hit the beach volleyball court, which will be holding lessons and fun throughout the day.

Geelong Racing Club has a deep commitment to supporting the local community, and is excited to announce a community fundraiser initiative, specifically designed to help and empower local community groups.

To participate, gather your local sporting club or community group and purchase a community bundle package for $400 which includes 20 adult admission tickets (children attend free) and the possibility to share in the $40,000 cash prize pool.

Don’t miss out on your chance to walk away with a top prize of $20,000 for your community or sporting group. If drawn in the lottery for the feature race, odds are about 15-1 to win the big cash prize.

There will be something for everyone to enjoy at the Super Saturday on the Coast. So wear your boardies and summer dresses and don’t miss out on the summer fun in Geelong.

Pre-purchasing your ticket is a great way to avoid the queue on race day and walk straight into the action.

Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for concession (must present concession ID at the gate), free for children under 17 (pre-purchased tickets are not required) and $30 for families (two adults and two children).
