Part of

Warrnambool May Racing Carnival

Tue 5 May 2026 to Thu 7 May 2026 · Warrnambool Racing Club

Australia's only three-day racing carnival and the spiritual home of jumps racing—22 flat races and 8 jumps races across three days.

The carnival's May timing and coastal location create distinctly winter racing atmosphere: dark colours, checks, and plaids are traditional. Felt headpieces, leather flat caps, wool fedoras replace lighter millinery.

Fabrics: Tweed jackets, merino wool, warm layers, practical footwear
