A Car Boot Party is better than a party in your own backyard!

Gather your friends for your first ever Car Boot Party at Flemington, where you can book a dedicated space and make it a party you’ll never forget. 

The best thing about a Car Boot Party is you can choose to BYO – food, beverages (including alcohol), tables, chairs and decorations to add your unique flare – or let the VRC accredited hirers and caterers handle everything for you. 

Choose between a Standard Site or a Super Site and create your own unique party. Whether you want it grand or casual, you can play host to friends and family, impressing them with your personal style and taste.

You will have access to all the thrilling racing action on superscreens including the race that stops a nation™ and a DJ to keep the party going all day long ensuring a one-of-a-kind Lexus Melbourne Cup Day party.

*Please note: Price includes access to The Nursery and General Public access throughout Flemington including The Park, The Front Lawn, The Elms and Club Lawn Hotel.

The Car Boot Party is located in The Nursery, a VRC members area and Members Dress Regulations apply.
