A gentle giant nuzzles your palm. The kids are locking eyes with a curious foal. This isn’t a dream it’s your Saturday during National Thoroughbred Week a once-in-a-lifetime chance to step behind the scenes of the Thoroughbred world. For one magical week (20–24 Nov 2025) dozens of stables stud farms vet clinics and aftercare centres are throwing open their gates to you.
Meet the horses meet the people and experience the heart of the racing industry all up close for free.
It’s a transparent open invitation to connect with an industry that wants to show you everything. Think of it as a backstage pass to the world of horses a community-first event with nothing to hide and everything to share. Whether you’ve cheered on the Melbourne Cup every year or can’t tell a hoof from a horseshoe you’re invited with open arms. Come for the fun free fascinating day out that the whole family will love and leave with memories (and maybe a bit of horse hair) to cherish.
