Wellington Cup Carnival 
Run over three Saturdays in the height of summer, Wellington Cup Carnival is the greatest showcase of Thoroughbred Racing. From racing, to fashion, fine hospitality and live music there’s something for everyone and the atmosphere is electric! 
Classic Day kicks of the carnival with a day of sophisticated indulgence and one for all true racegoers.  This landmark day features the Group 1, Levin Classic. The official flower of the day is the Cornflower. 
The jewel of the racing calendar, the running of the Wellington Cup is accompanied by Group 1 racing making Wellington Cup Day the ultimate for racing purists, socialites and those just looking to enjoy Wellingtons biggest summer celebration – there’s no party like it!
Family Day swaps fascinators for sunhats and heels for jandals. With loads of free activities for the kids, it’s the perfect opportunity for adults to sit back, relax on the Trentham Lawn and have a flutter. 

Christmas at the Races
Whether your organising your end of year work party or get together with friends there’s a huge array of options to celebrate the festive season in style.  With the running of the Group 1, Captain Cook Stakes amongst the festivities it's a thrilling day all round.    

NZ Oaks Day
The Champagne Turf holds Wellingtons biggest ‘racing day’ with 5 Black Types on the cards.    Headlined by New Zealand’s finest fillies gracing the track for ‘The Oaks’, this March raceday is a firm favourite for the purists. Timing in with St Patrick’s and traditionally Ladies Day there’s plenty more than racing to make this one of sporting’s finest!
