Newcastle’s biggest day on the track is back – bigger, bolder, and set to raise the roof!
On Saturday 15 November, all eyes will be on The Hunter – our city’s $1 million racing spectacular. This isn’t just another race day; it’s the one that stops Newcastle, drawing Australia’s fastest horses, the nation’s top jockeys, and a crowd ready for an unforgettable celebration.
Across a blockbuster 10-race program with more than $2.59 million in prize money, the atmosphere will be nothing short of electric. Every race is a showdown. Every cheer is louder. Every moment counts.
And when the racing wraps, the stage lights up. Australian rock legend Jon Stevens will take over the trackside stage for an after-show you won’t want to miss – anthems, energy, and a party that keeps the day alive well into the evening.
From high-octane racing to dazzling fashions, gourmet food, premium hospitality, and music that moves the crowd, The Newcastle Herald Hunter Race Day is where Newcastle comes alive.
