Frock Up for Babbingtons – Melbourne Cup "Spring Fling"
Get ready for the race that stops the nation in absolute style at Babbingtons Restaurant & Bar on Tuesday, 4th November 2025!
Your host for the day is the wonderfully flamboyant, upbeat and engaging Jamie Cartner, bringing glamour, fun, laughter, and a touch of magic to your Melbourne Cup celebrations. From the moment you arrive, Jamie will sweep you up in the excitement with sweepstakes, trivia, fabulous prizes and jaw-dropping roving magic.
This year we’re adding a splash of style with a colour theme — dress to impress in BLACK or PINK for your chance to shine in our Best Dressed and Best Hat/Fascinator competitions.
And of course, no Cup Day is complete without the thrill of the big race on the big screen, the buzz of the crowd, and our vibrant Apollo atmosphere.
Event Details:
