EMIRATES MELBOURNE CUP PACKAGES
Stars Sports Tours run a number of Horse Racing tours. If you are a horse lover, or just a keen punter, these tours are sure to bring you close to the action. Some of our most famous Emirates Melbourne Cup tours are escorted by Donna Beck and Des Coppins, giving you the opportunity to get some hot tips along the way.
It's a celebration of 145 years of tradition. When the finest thoroughbreds from around the world meet. Over fours days of spine-tingling racing, fashion and glamour. A celebration lurving more than 350,000 people together. It's destined to be etched in your memory forever.
The first Cup was run in 1861. There were 17 starters and , paradoxically , the prize - apart from the money (170 pounds ) - was not a cup at all , but a hand - beaten gold watch . Archer, the Winning horse , had walked to Melbourne from its stable in Nowra ,New South Wales , a distance of 500 miles (800km)
There are a number of touring option to choose from including 5 and 8 day tours as well as a Corporate Hospitality Tour. Join tour hosts Des Coppins and Donna Beck who will look after your from start to finish and with the premium seats we have at Flemington, in the covered Hill Stand, your view of the racing is unequealled. Choose between tours than take in a combination of Oaks, Derby and Cup Day as well as the country meeting at Kyneton.
