Melbourne Cup 2020 In Lane Cove

Melbourne Cup is on Tuesday, the 3rd of November 2020

It is the race that stops a nation. Well, maybe it used to when it was run at around 2.45 pm (back in the day), but a 3 pm race time means school pick-up time for many and an interruption to those champagne focused festivities.

This year, the race day may be different for some of us. There is no reason why we cannot still get dressed up, and have a COVID-19 safe celebration with a few friends or coworkers (always observing social distancing).

Just being a part of the Melbourne Cup hype is fun, and a great excuse to get together with a group of friends for lunch, gossip, and to show off your new fascinator.

We have put together a guide on Melbourne Cup In the Cove. We have so many options such as dining out, dining in, getting Melbourne cup ready and also the best food for the day after!!!!  At one stage it looked liked venues could not hold Melbourne Cup functions, but from Friday 23 October 2020, hospitality venues such as restaurants, cafes, pubs and clubs can take group bookings of up to 30 customers per booking and the number of people per table increases to 30 customers.

With the easing of some COVID-19 restrictions from Friday 23 October 2020,  up to 30 people can gather in an outdoor public place.
