Beverly Returns to the Sportsbet Caulfield Cup Carnival 2026 with More Style, More Sophistication and More Celebration
There is something undeniably glamorous about spring racing in Melbourne, and in 2026 one of the Carnival’s most talked-about hospitality destinations is making a welcome return.
Beverly Hospitality
After a sold-out debut in 2025, Beverly is set to once again transform the Sportsbet Caulfield Cup Carnival into an unforgettable social experience, combining premium hospitality, exceptional food and drinks, live entertainment and the vibrant atmosphere that racegoers have embraced.
Running from 10–17 October 2026 at Caulfield Racecourse, Beverly promises to elevate race day beyond the track, offering guests a stylish destination where fashion, entertainment and celebration come together seamlessly.
New for 2026 is the introduction of the exclusive Beverly Spritz, a signature cocktail created especially for the marquee, alongside an all-day roaming food experience showcasing Beverly’s most-loved dishes. Guests can also enjoy complimentary cocktail masterclasses hosted by expert mixologists, while the brand-new Golden Hour at Beverly post-race celebration will feature live entertainment following the final race, creating the perfect way to continue the festivities well into the evening.
As Melbourne Racing Club celebrates MRC150 and the historic 150th running of the Sportsbet Caulfield Cup, Beverly arrives at the perfect moment, offering racegoers another reason to experience one of Australia’s most prestigious sporting and social events.
Melbourne Racing Club CEO Tanya Fullarton said Beverly’s return reflects the Club’s commitment to continually enhancing the Carnival experience.
“Providing racegoers with a diverse range of experiences is an important part of the continued evolution of the Sportsbet Caulfield Cup Carnival.”
She added that as the Club celebrates its milestone year, the focus remains on honouring its rich history while attracting new audiences through premium experiences that extend beyond the racing itself.
Premium Race Day Hospitality
Beverly Co-owner Cameron Northway said last year’s overwhelming response inspired the team to take the concept even further.
“Last year’s response exceeded all expectations and showed us there was a real appetite for a hospitality experience that combined the excitement of racing with the food, drinks and atmosphere Beverly is known for.”
With enhanced entertainment, elevated dining and new signature experiences, Beverly is positioning itself as one of the must-visit destinations throughout the Carnival.
