P&O Cruises is offering exclusive tickets to two Melbourne racing carnival events – the celebrity-packed VRC Oaks Club luncheon and a behind-the-scenes tour of Flemington race course, including a visit to the legendary Birdcage.
The cruise line has secured limited spots at both events and is offering them to passengers who have booked on Pacific Jewel and Pacific Pearl’s 2013 Melbourne Cup cruises.
Only 60 spots are available for the Flemington behind the scenes tour on November 4 and just 20 tickets are available for the Oaks Club Luncheon on November 6.
The Flemington tour is priced at A$199 and the VRC Oaks Club luncheon is priced at A$299, which includes transfers to Crown Melbourne’s Palladium, a three-course lunch prepared by chefs Guillaume Brahimi and Neil Perry, entertainment and door prizes including Emirates flights.
Tickets on sale from 10am (AEDT) on Tuesday October 8. The booking line will be open during business hours until the tickets are sold out.
To book, call 1300 725 417 (AU) or 0800 780 708 (NZ)
