Overview

Situated on the banks of the beautiful Murray River, bordering the nearby township of Moama - The Echuca Racing Club is a family-friendly club that hosts 10 meetings throughout the season, including the main events, Moama Bowling Club Melbourne Cup Day and the Moama Bowling Club Echuca Cup.

Description

The newly renovated Pavilion is decked out with new and stylish fittings and furnishings plus there is a fabulous deck which will be the perfect place to watch all the action of live thoroughbred racing. The Pavilion will make your time at the Echuca Racing Club an even better day out! The Pavilion is reserved for Echuca Racing Club members only on Melbourne Cup Day and Echuca Cup Day. In the early days, special trains ran from other regional towns to transport people to the Echuca races. When the Club first formed in 1864, the sport of racing swiftly gained in popularity. The influx of people by train from regional towns led to a rail siding being built to the racecourse to accommodate the special 'race' trains. Despite a decline in popularity between the two World Wars, the enthusiasm for racing in the town continues today.
