Enjoy the 2019 Melbourne Cup with Royal Woods Resort

The annual Melbourne Cup is Australia’s most prestigious thoroughbred horse race, held each November in Melbourne at the iconic Flemington Racecourse with a history that dates all the way back to 1861. Watched in both Australia and New Zealand and hailed as the “race that stops the nation”, the Melbourne Cup is not to be missed this spring!

For Queenslanders and holidaymakers, the Gold Coast is a top location for enjoying Melbourne Cup, with more than a handful of world-class venues putting all the action live on a big screen not far from some of the most sought-after beaches in Australia.

Here at Royal Woods, our Nerang accommodation QLD resort is a stone’s throw away from the best Gold Coast venues to watch the Melbourne Cup in November, including the Aquis Park Gold Coast Turf Club - the Gold Coast’s leading racecourse - which is just a short drive from our location.
