Good experience at cup no thanks to hassle of getting tickets
We booked 2 Reserved Tables on the Lawn for 12 of us for Oaks Day our first at Flemington we had an absolutely fantastic day and loved every minute of it and will be back next year.
Great day the weather gods were good to us the only thing, there is never enough toilets and pls next year make sure the TAB outlets use experienced workers the person was new and very stressed and it was so not there fault.
We arrived early, about 2 hours before the first race, to find our seats and found them covered in dirt. There were a couple of people cleaning them and when we went back an hour later had to wipe them down ourselves. For most of the day we could not get access to our phone apps to have a bet. And we paid $30 for a small champagne in a plastic cup. Very unenjoyable day out. I have been going now for over 25 years and not sure I will go again.
Very disappointed with VRC as on arrival didnât have our table & indicated we must be in wrong Diningroom & must have been booked in another name. Surprised when I showed them tix in wallet! A complimentary drink would have been nice!!!!!
