Non-Raceday Facilities

While racing is what we’re passionate about we also provide great venues for the whole community to host special events and functions.

For special occasions from weddings and cocktail events to birthdays and reunions we’ll help you find a space that works for you and your guests on the grounds of our beautiful racecourse.

If its educational workshops or conferences you need to organise we can help you make it as stress free and user friendly as possible with plenty of parking and catering to suit your needs.

Breakages or Damage to MRC Property: These will be at the cost of the Hirer.

Cleaning: If you choose to clean the lounge and leave the lounge exactly the way it was found it will involve no further cleaning cost. If you choose to pay for the cleaning (see cost below) we expect the lounge or surrounding area to be left as found on arrival.  All rubbish must be placed in the bins provided.  Please ensure any broken glass is cleared and safely disposed of.

Cleaning Cost: $25-100.00 depending on time needed to clean the lounge.

NB. The Club expect bottles and rubbish to be picked up outside of the lounge in the surrounding areas.  Horses are the number one priority on the racecourse and must not be put in any danger.
