Christine Aguilera, being in all that electricity you could feel from everyone was amazing. Jessica Malbou was amazing such powerhouse voices. Absolutely loved the singing the whole racecourse was full. It was just the downpour of rain 🌧 that ruined it.

Fantastic new stand, service at all bars was prompt and friendly - some terrific cocktails! New Roof top bar is sensational with amazing views of not only the track but whole of Melbourne, would like to see some more heaters outside but all in all terrific

Great venues, first time here since lockdown

I was there attending to the Download Festival 2019. Very big open space and well organized. Amazing bands and a good dose of metal. Really nice experience 👌

If anyone is considering to visit this place from Melbourne CBD. There's not much interesting going on because all the buildings are prohibited to enter. Even the trail or scenery is ugly and not well maintained compared to the parks in the city. You will be better off visiting Botanical Garden or even Flagstaff. It seemed like the field was mostly used by the locals who want to bring dogs or run only for athletic purpose (no aesthetic/scenery).

Great event, full of people, very well organized. The Terrace is great. Food is fantastic and the service was outstanding. Great experience of the australian cultural expression.

Total lack of community spirit building a flood wall to protect the track diverting waters into homes! This local community has supported this racecourse a lot! A delayed meet is hardly a big issue.

I went for the Knotfest featival in this racecourse. So, I cannot exactly describe my experience in view to the racing ground. However, by the looks of it, it's a massive ground which can fit lots of people at once. Cannnot be a racing ground for Melbourne Cup without a reason. Had a great time. Easy to access with flemington train station open during major events.

The best racecourse in the world! Something for everyone, pool tables, children's games and amusement rides. Markets for the ladies. But best of all fantastic Group horses and great jockeys.

Finally got a change to visit this historic racecourse. Beautiful place to visit. They also offer tours when there are no races going on. Also check out their small museum. Must visit at least once if you are in Melbourne.

Amazing day for Melbourne Cup. Loved the atmosphere & fashions. Queues for getting food, drinks, merchandise & TAB was ridiculous. Ran out of bottled water & Flemmington caps (funding out after being in queue for 40 minutes!). The wait for buses was another badly organized queue of over an hour in the heat & bus fumes. Shame really as it could work better & make the day even better.

My great great grand-father's stables in Geelong was used to hide Phar Lap back in the day (my nana—who passed away in May this year, 2023, aged 102—recalls the horse and declined to sit on him). Yet I have only been here three times. Once for Oaks Day (circa 1996), once for The Melbourne Cup (circa 2007), and yesterday (1.12.23) for Good Things. Each day was wonderful. The two crowds are wildly different yet both are thoroughly worth seeing let alone the reason this venue exist.

Amazing Derby Day and Melbourne Cup Day. Well organised, safe and beautiful race course. Loved all the gardens as well!

Experienced Melbourne Cup in scorching hot weather. No water was available for purchase and it took along time to get back to our Hotel. Not as organised as I thought it would be. Water stations should have been installed. But the cup atmosphere was fantastic.

Easy enough to get to by public transport during spring racing carnival - generally a great time each november

Parks & grounds are great. This is so close to the city, so has views to the CBD, though is in a slight valley so is quieter with soft breezes. Definitely worth stopping for a walk along the roses if you're driving past

The best racecourse in Australia.

I went to the Flemington Racecourse for the Good Things festival and it was fantastic. There could have been a few more areas to get water from, but aside from that, it was great. I can't say much, or anything, about the races that go on there, but for events, it is a great spot with plenty of space.

VRC Summer Fun Race Day, we dined at the Chairman’s Club. The service was good, attentive and polite but it was obvious that some staff were still in training as side plates and cutlery were missing, orders mixed up etc. The food was tasty, in particular the cod and the roasted peach dessert. The latter was absolutely delectable. Not a supporter of horse racing particularly on a 38 degree day and was concerned about the horses being in distress. The events were pushed to an earlier timeframe so that the races would conclude way before the temperature peaked.

Great place for a day out when the races are on. Great when the weather is beautiful in Melbourne.

Beautiful place to visit for family and friends. With beautiful natural environment specially hinders of varieties of Roses you can’t find anywhere else.

Flemington Racecourse is an incredible destination that truly offers something for everyone. This iconic Australian landmark has been a fixture in Melbourne for over 160 years and is renowned for its horse racing events, world-class facilities, and stunning architecture. The racecourse itself is simply breathtaking, with a sprawling layout that is as impressive as it is functional. From the moment you arrive, you'll be struck by the incredible energy and excitement that permeates the entire facility. Whether you're an avid horse racing enthusiast or simply looking to enjoy a day out with friends and family, Flemington Racecourse has something to offer. The racing events held here are some of the most prestigious in the world, drawing visitors from all over the globe to witness the thrill of the races. But even if you're not interested in horse racing, there are still plenty of reasons to visit Flemington Racecourse. The beautiful grounds are perfect for a leisurely stroll or picnic, and the many restaurants, bars, and cafes offer a wide range of dining options. And if you're looking for a truly unforgettable experience, be sure to visit during the Melbourne Cup Carnival, which is one of the most iconic events in the Australian social calendar. Overall, I highly recommend Flemington Racecourse as a must-visit destination in Melbourne. The combination of world-class horse racing, stunning facilities, and beautiful grounds make it a truly unique and unforgettable experience.

A wonderful experience. Best of the racecourses you will find. The beautiful garden and flowers makes it a memorable visit. The racecourse comes to life during the Melbourne cup a week of awesome entertainment. Dress up, and join the fun. If your lucky your horse might win you a million.

5 stars due to the incredibly awesome Good things festival lol 🔥🤟🏼🔥 Great location, easy to get to via public transport or uber, close to CBD

Had such a great time at Flemmington. The grounds are beautiful. We joined the punters club for the day and made some good coin. We went on a quieter day and no tap been which was disappointing, but you could buy cans. Food was good.

Bar service is really pathetic on Melbourne cup Day hopefully they have learnt Queue for an hour Apart from that enjoyable day

Jackie and the Team at The Terrace Restaurant at Flemington Racecourse are simply AWESOME !! Thank you for all the great days there over the past couple of decades

As well as a great day at the races, every event I’ve been to at Flemington has been well organised. Such a great space to have multiple stages. Pics are from Good Things Festival 2023.

Cristiana Aguilera concert was well held by venue, security, drinks, toilets etc all well catered for.

Flemington Racecourse is the Jewell in the Crown of Horseracing Victoria. Set in an ideal location , with great views of the Melbourne Skyline and Picturesque Marybirnong River, it is a must place to visit during the Spring Racing Carnival.

Always perfect roses here around race time. I hate the races. But love the flowers. So rating for the flowers not the horses.

Had the opportunity to attend a sustainability tour here today. The upgrading building building was beautiful, and the work being conducted and planned sustainability wise was impressive. Well done.

Quite nice when there's no people there

The big bounce was just absolutely incredible. I recommend this place for young and old. Reasonably priced. P.s Drink lots of water.

Attended the Melbourne Cup, whilst it was great to tick it off the bucket list. A little too crowded for me and the wait times for water were crazy, nice place though!

Great meal, great service.

Verdaniseed and beautiful events

Love the heritage sites of the Flemington Racecourse. A great place with well maintained gardens and Racecourse with plenty of parking spaces available and some great pavilion spaces for events and activities. Absolutely fantastic sites for mid to large sized events and offcourse the well famous Racecourse and the Melbourne Cup event.

Crown treats their staff shockingly. I was at an event yesterday at the racetrack and overheard two occasions of a manager berating a young staff member unnecessarily. There was a lack of organisation to the entire day with many off the staff doing their best clearly. With no guidance from management who seemed to be standing around chatting and only looking for problems. Arrogant, aggressive and rude. To both staff and clients. Wake up! There is a staff shortage and you treat your people badly. Good luck.

Went there with the family to see the first Knotfest 2023 in Australia. We had an amazing time

2021 Melb cup was awesome. Great day out on the lawn

Always great to swing by Melbourne's pride and joy. Staff very polite and smiling. Went by to drop a package, gardening and maintenance staff explained very well where I needed to go.

Doubt there is a more beautifully set racecourse anywhere. Surrounded by lots of leasurely parklands and set along the banks of the Maribyrnong River the course is most famous for holding the Melbourne Cup, considered the best of the 3200m (2 miles) races globally. The beautiful rose gardens in the enclosure and surrounding the architecturally appeasing finishing post are worth a visit alone. Easy public transport to nearby train connection. Easy contact can be made with the Racng Victoria or the Club's Customer Services to arrange visitations.

Five stars could never be enough for the glory and atmosphere you soak up here.. Can't say enough good things. Their staff, their gardens, their reason: ELITE.

Hooray! Good Parking attendants at last! and staff were well presented and looked after us, apart from the Boss who was not wearing a tie. lol

wonderful, big open space, good access to public transport, and lots of parking on site, perfect for festivals. I have been to a few Downloads and my first Knotfest

We went here for a corporate function function. Great rooms and facilities with a fantastic view of the western side of the city.

Amazing place, amazing facilities. Been here for the horse race and graduation ceremony.

Went last Saturday, had a really good day. The only downside is that the entry and all the bars/ food outlets don't accept cash, this is absolutely ridiculous,if I present legal tender it must be accepted. Please Flemington Racecourse let people use cash.

A must see for everyone

Great racecourse

Saw cirque Du soleil on opening night before it was cancelled. Great night. Something always triggers my hayfever out here. Doesn't matter what time of the year. So if you get hayfever pop a zyrtec before coming.

I always wish to see horse racing and finally got a change to visit this historic racecourse. It is a beautiful place to visit. Enjoy food with beer at reasonable price. Also you can checkout other places there are no races going on. Must visit at least once if you are in Melbourne.

(Translated by Google) Interesting tour and exciting things that happened there! It's not my sport, but you should always be open to seeing something new! Definitely worth a look there! (Original) Interessante Führung und spannende DInge, die dort so passiert sind! Ist zwar nicht mein Sport, aber man sollte immer offen dafür sein, was neues zu sehen! Lohnt sich auf jeden Fall dort mal vorbei zu schaun!

Love it. Its great. You should go there

⭐

Ultra Festival

Great experience in Melbourne cup or derby day

Well maintained grounds

A must see. Pristine gardens. Spring racing is a must. The facilities are the best I've seen at any racecourse

Easy on the eye and a relaxed day out

Worked there during Melbourne Cup. Electrifying experience

Easy to get to and from the racecourse with public transport. Really hope we are able to go to the races this year.

The Nursery of Champions. I Often walk past thing beautiful place. 5 Stars just doesn't do it justice.

I live around the corner in Kensington just off Epsom Rd not far from Flemington Racecourse. Its so beautiful when you drive over the Princess bridge. You can see the Grand Stands frm the distance & the lavish greenery is so beautiful. The best place to hold the Melbourne Cup & The Royal Melbourne Show. The Royal Melbourne Show starts around the end of September early October. While the Melbourne Cup is held during the first week of November The most famous Racecourse grounds in Australia.

Marvelous place to have a day out. Good food at reasonable prices, nice beer as well. Good to see everyone is rubbish conscience. The place was as clean when we left as it was when we arrived

Great place to see the races but the timetable for the trains can be hard to find as it is only an event line.

Always a great day to attend Flemington when the "Carnival Members" are not there, especially the newer ones . Lunch in the 6 Furlongs restaurant and drinks on the rooftop. Throw in 3 winners and it was a top day. Let's hope most of the new members forget to renew their membership, or learn to behave with decorum.

Gorgeous venue! Was here with Dance Gavin Dance for the music festival "Good Things". This venue is home to the world famous Melbourne Cup. The grounds have beautiful rose gardens and a very neat and clean look.

ABSOLUTEY STUNNING PLACE I ENFORCE CHILD SLAVERY

Flemington is such an amazing track Had a great day there yesterday. Especially when the winners were flowing!! It was a great way to kick Start my Saturday. Found the tab staff were awesome as well. Track and it's surrounds were in immaculate condition. Just a shame with the weather but that's Melbourne for you!!!

Open spaces, beautiful gardens and great racing.

Very well organized race day in the member Atrium Bar with the other punters. Lunch is either a sit down smorgasbord or you can sit at high bar tables and order from the cafe attached to the bar. Some better organized members bring some nibbles or sandwiches to share with friends - once in the members venture you have a choice of around 10 bars and viewing areas to choose from, with most seeming to head inside to watch on screens or on the balcony.

Excellent race course and the seating arrangements. Hosts the Melbourne Cup - amazing experience guaranteed

Awesome to all family waking and ride

Very good

11 out 10.Awesome top day.

Great place. Carpark can be a little far away especially when dressed up.

Melbourne cup!

It's a good place

Great new members facilities

Very beautiful place. Well kept, staff are friendly, lots of parking. This place is huge!

Best racecourse in the world. So much history

Ultra music festival

Great venue for music festivals and of course horse racing

Ultra festival! Good fun

What a great racecourse the gardens are world class had a great time even got free parking on super Saturday and free seating resonably priced to get in 25 bucks and a tip grab a roast roll from tab outlet 12 bucks

Where do I start? Best track in Australia by far!

Great place to enjoy the races

It was so amazing Ultra festival 2020 in here!! It couldn’t be better????

Beautiful, clear , order and iconic place to visit in Melbourne

Great day out at Ultra Music Festival watching the likes of DJ Snake, Afrojack and Zedd. Massive crowd and lots to eat and drink too. Recommend bringing someone you know along with you as it makes the experience even better

Lovely racecourse we had excellent view wasn't very busy so easy to put bets on and get food and drinks
