Melbourne Cup party with a twist

The occasion

Melbourne Cup is one of the biggest parties of the year, and as the ‘race that stops the nation’, you want to make sure you’ve got everything sorted for the big day. We’re here to help you pull off a memorable Melbourne Cup event that’ll get your crew talking, mixing, and experiencing new things. Whether you’re looking to plan a corporate or private Melbourne Cup party, a sophisticated event for your team or something a little more casual and fun, we’ll do all the hard work behind-the-scenes so you can just focus on the fun (or betting on horses).

Between all that booze you’ll be downing, you’d better make sure there’s more than enough food to balance it out. One of the most important aspects of any party is the catering, and on Melbourne Cup day your team is looking to be truly wowed. We’ll connect you with your very own private chef to cook and deliver an incredible mouth-watering meal on-site, full of all your favourites.

You can work with the chef to craft a menu that’s made just the way you like, or have them come up with something from their own creative imaginations. From multi-course gourmet meals to quirky canapes, grazing tables, buffets, barbecues, and desserts, your personal chef is here to deliver Melbourne Cup catering that’ll impress.
