A venue built around the occasion
Rosehill Gardens is often visited for more than the race itself. Race days can include hospitality packages, dining, entertainment and group celebrations, while the broader venue is also used for conferences, expos and special events.
Guests attending a Rosehill Gardens event should allow time for arrivals, parking, hospitality access and event-day traffic, especially during major racing carnivals. For those planning a full day out, travelling by taxi or Uber can make the day easier, particularly when attending with a group.
