Melbourne Cup Day

ABC Bullion Private Marquee in The Birdcage

Time: 9.30am – 5.00pm

Location: The Birdcage, Flemington Racecourse, Melbourne

Starting from your hotel, you will be whisked away by a private transfer to the ABC Bullion marquee in The Birdcage.

Experience the excitement and exclusivity of the most sought-after place to watch the Melbourne Cup, there’s almost as much happening in The Birdcage as on the track. It’s no surprise celebrities, dignitaries as well as those flying under-the-radar flock there each year.

As a special guest of ABC Bullion, you’ll be right in the thick of it and experience the most desirable event on Australia’s social calendar, all from the privacy of our own exclusive marquee. You’ll savour a day rich with fabulous food, drink and company – culminating in the running of the race that stops the nation. You’ll even get the opportunity to hold the 2023 Melbourne Cup itself – something the other Birdcagers can only envy.

It’s the ultimate luxury experience, there is truly no other event like it.

Tuesday 7th November 2023

Melbourne Cup After Party

Get your dancing shoes on at the State of Grace

Time: 6.30pm – late

Location: State of Grace Rooftop, 27 King Street (8 min walk from the hotel)

From the racetrack to the rooftop, the ABC Bullion celebrations continue. Whisking you from The Birdcage back to the hotel, you’ll have time to freshen up and put on those dancing shoes in readiness for the evening.

State of Grace Rooftop is just a short walk away – and it’s exclusively yours. Once there you’ll be treated to views overlooking Melbourne city while being served a winning combination of food, drinks and music. Wind down from the day with chilled beats and personal masseuses on-site to pamper you.

It’s the perfect place to relax, reflect on the day and then even kick-on as part of what will be a truly memorable experience.
