Where to Watch the Racing in Melbourne
Last updated November 12, 2026
Racing fills a room a handful of times a year and does it completely: the Grand National, the Cheltenham Festival, Royal Ascot, and in Australia a Melbourne Cup that stops the country on a Tuesday afternoon. These 12 venues in Melbourne carry a real signal that they show the racing.

Frequently asked questions
- Which pub is showing the racing in Melbourne?
- 12 venues in Melbourne have public evidence of showing the racing: the venue's own post or website, a club or fan-group listing, a Google review, or local coverage. Every listing on this page shows its evidence: a linked post or page from the venue, a club or local coverage, or a quoted Google review. Check the venue's current listing for the specific game or event you want to watch.
- Where can I watch the Grand National in Melbourne?
- The sections on this page split them by what the evidence says: 1 has evidence of showing the racing regularly; 11 have evidence of a specific screening. Check with the venue for sound, opening hours and booking requirements.
- When are the next Horse Racing races?
- Next up: Cheltenham Festival, Gold Cup day on Fri 19 Mar 2027 (time to be confirmed); The Derby (Epsom Derby) on Sat 5 Jun 2027, 15:00 UTC; Royal Ascot, Ladies' Day (Gold Cup day) on Thu 17 Jun 2027 (time to be confirmed). The reliable venues tend to be the ones that carry a dedicated racing channel all year rather than only switching it on for the big festivals, so it is worth checking whether a pub shows the racing every Saturday or just on National day.
- How is this Horse Racing list for Melbourne put together?
- It is built from public evidence only: a venue's own posts and website, club and fan-group listings, Google reviews, and local press. We keep hospitality venues only, drop anything we cannot source, and refresh the Melbourne list as new evidence appears.
