The Precinct Marquee is the perfect blend of racing, hospitality and social atmosphere at the Ladbrokes Geelong Cup. Located in its new position within the Plan Group Home Straight Village, guests will be surrounded by the event's premier corporate hospitality precinct, creating the perfect opportunity to mingle with Geelong businesses and fellow racegoers throughout the day.

Enjoy a relaxed two-course Tuscan-style shared dining experience, private bar and exclusive amenities, all while being just one row back from the home straight and only moments from the rails. DJs will keep the atmosphere buzzing from the stage outside throughout the afternoon, while the iconic John Course Afterparty takes place right at your doorstep.

The Plan Group Precinct is one of the most social and vibrant hospitality experiences on course, placing you in the heart of the action from the first race to the final song.

Available as shared tables or private tables of 10 guests.

Right opposite the mounting yard. Right in the middle of the action.

The Ladbrokes.com.au Mounting Yard Bar returns to the 2026 Geelong Cup, delivering the ultimate race day experience for true racing enthusiasts.

Enjoy an all-day food and beverage package, exclusive viewing deck overlooking the mounting yard, celebrity hosts, live entertainment and a front-row seat to all the pre-race action as the horses make their way to the track.

With bookmakers, private amenities and one of the best locations on course, it's no surprise this fan favourite is back for another year.

Some race days are about the racing. This one is about community.

In just a few weeks, Geelong Racing Club will proudly host the annual Right Mate Race Day; a day that brings our community together behind a great cause: men's mental health.

Right Mate was founded on a simple but powerful belief: no one should have to face life's challenges alone. Through events, conversations, and direct community support, they are creating spaces where men feel comfortable speaking up, connecting, and seeking help when they need it most.

The funds raised on the day help Right Mate continue this vital work, supporting local individuals and families, subsidising community programs, and ensuring those doing it tough know they have a network behind them.

Guests can enjoy a fantastic day of racing, a two-course lunch, live auctions, raffles, and inspiring guest speakers sharing their experiences and insights around mental health. What makes this event truly special is knowing that every ticket purchased and every conversation started contributes to something far bigger than a day at the races.

Tickets are 50% sold. If you have joined in before you know its a great day.
2026 Guest Speaker: Former AFL player Tim McGrath
