• Parking Instructions
• Trivia Night Flyer
• Supplementary Regulations

If you are driving to the venue, take Gate 6 from Dean St or use Wilson St and proceed to the centre of the racecourse to park. Parking will now be free. If you have disabled passengers, you can drop them at the front door before proceeding back out to park. We will provide separate details later. From the airport, it is only a 15-minute drive.  Allow 10 more minutes during the peak. Coming by tram, the nearest stop is just 150m from the Gate 2 main entry. Use the Moonee Valley Civic Centre stop on Pascoe Vale  Rd. Coming by train, use the Moonee Ponds station and walk 450m to Gate 2. Everything is shown on the map above. Detailed instructions will be sent out to players the weekend prior. Gate 2 is the entrance nearest the junction of Feehan Ave and Dean St.

The racecourse is situated in the heart of Moonee Ponds with cafes, hotels, restaurants and more, all within walking distance to the venue and reasonable prices. Courtesy Kim Frazer, here are some places you should google and try:

Saros - bottom of Sebel - although it is the hotel's restaurant, has excellent service.
Chiba - Japanese (well recommended).
Taksim Square - Turkish (go there hungry) good for groups and sharing plates.
Phillelhene - Greek - also good for groups and sharing plates.
Escagrill - Italian - variety of traditional Italian dishes and steak.
Gourmet Kitchen (Good international cuisine).
Chilli Pepper - Vietnamese - small place but been in the area for a long time.
Vintage Cellar Wine Bar (very busy popular Wine Bar with Spanish influence). 
Ascot Food & Wine (gets great reviews and is always busy)

Other options include Jack's Satay Bar, Portobello, and Carosello.
Further afield in Union Road ( a short uber trip) is Arcadia Gastronomique 

During the event, we will be bringing you an inhouse menu to order from for some smart and simple lunches. I will email instructions and price list to all players. We need you to pay on ordering with a credit card.
