Bairnsdale Racing Club is preparing to host the Lakes Entrance Cup on Sunday, September 20, promising a trackside family day out at the local racecourse.
Positioned as a major feature on the regional calendar, the event offers a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere showcasing high-caliber country racing alongside a selection of Gippsland’s top food vans.
As the region’s only spring racing fixture this season scheduled outside the Melbourne Cup roster, the Lakes Entrance Cup provides locals with a distinct, community-focused alternative to major metropolitan race meets.
Organisers are encouraging community support for the local club, with free courtesy buses running from Orbost, Bairnsdale, Paynesville and Lakes Entrance to transport racegoers.
Bus routes and approximate timetable details are available on the Bairnsdale Racing Club website.
