VRC Chief Executive Officer Kylie Rogers said FISHER is an incredible fit to celebrate TAB Champions Stakes Day and close the 2025 Melbourne Cup Carnival.<\/p>\n
\u201cSecuring an internationally recognised artist of FISHER\u2019s calibre is truly exciting. FISHER is one of the world\u2019s most electrifying and in-demand artists and the perfect entertainer to headline the Off the Rails party to celebrate the final day of the 2025 Melbourne Cup Carnival,\u201d Ms Rogers said.<\/p>\n
FISHER is thrilled to be returning to Australia in November and performing for the first time at the Melbourne Cup Carnival in front of thousands of racegoers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMelbourne, I\u2019m so excited to come to party with you all at the Melbourne Cup Carnival.\u00a0 Giddy up.\u201d FISHER said. \u00a0<\/p>\n
This year, the world-class entertainment stage, moves to The Elms at the end of the straight at Flemington, just past the winning post.\u00a0 Here, major international headline performers, including PNAU on Lexus Melbourne Cup Day and Craig David on Crown Oaks Day will take to the stage and event goers can enjoy all the action for the price of a Flemington Pass (General Admission) entry ticket.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The VRC will reveal more of the exceptional Melbourne Cup Carnival entertainment line-up soon.<\/p>\n
The VRC extends their thanks to the Victorian State Government and Racing Victoria for their support via the Major Racing and Events Fund. Thanks to this support, the VRC can take Cup Week to the next level, bringing some of the world\u2019s best entertainers to Flemington, creating unforgettable experiences for all to enjoy.<\/p>\n
Minister for Racing Anthony Carbines welcomed the announcement.<\/p>\n
\u201cNobody does trackside entertainment like we do in Victoria. This year we’re supporting VRC to bring world-class acts to Flemington, like Fisher, to make sure the 2025 Spring Carnival is bigger and better than ever,\u201d Mr Carbines said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen you back the racing industry, you back more than 35,000 Victorian jobs and\u00a0$4.7 billion for the economy \u2013 it\u2019s a sure bet.\u201d<\/p>\n
Racing Victoria CEO\u00a0Aaron Morrison said the announcement was a perfect way to celebrate and wrap up the Melbourne Cup Carnival.<\/p>\n
\u201cChampions Stakes Day will be an exciting day on and off the track. <\/p>\n
Thanks to the VRC and State Government for their initiative and support, I\u2019m sure it will be an amazing event and a fitting finale to Melbourne Cup Week as part of the world-famous Spring Racing Carnival.\u201d<\/p>\n
