Stella Artois Auckland Cup Day

Overview

All eyes are on Auckland during Cup Week – New Zealand’s largest, richest, and most glamorous horse racing carnival which continues with the Stella Artois Auckland Cup Day.

Celebrating Auckland's iconic race and providing a half day off mid-week for many, the day features the time-honoured $500,000 Stella Artois Auckland Cup, the second running of the Auckland Cup Secondary Schools Cross Country, the Stella Artois Cup Couture fashion competition and the famous Birdcage Bash after the last race.

Fashionable couples will not want to miss this one as the Cup Couture judges will be out to find the best-dressed couples on course whose 'look' best embodies the style and prestige of Stella Artois Auckland Cup Day.
