The Big Dance on Cup Day is a thrilling flat racing fixture for thoroughbred racehorses and is held at Royal Randwick Racecourse just south of Sydney, Australia.
The Big Dance on Cup Day is part of the vibrant Sydney Everest Carnival which runs from the end of September to the beginning of November as a fabulous celebration of racing in Australia and Sydney's ultimate spring celebration. This raceday features the $2 million The Big Dance but it is also on the same day as the Melbourne Cup at Flemington Racecourse, so you'll be able to watch the action on the big screens! Royal Randwick offers a stylish, fashionable, and, of course, fun day out for visitors of all ages, genders, and levels of racing knowledge. The course is world-class with some incredible facilities which is especially true during the Everest Carnival!
Following the racing, there's a major headline music act to celebrate the day's action!
