When is cox plate day

The announcement has caused some confusion amongst our loyal and keen patrons who were under the impression that this approval also applied to the Melbourne Cup Day and also, the Oaks Day event at Yarra Valley Racing. Unfortunately, it does not. The trials will be used to test event systems and processes to allow more people to safely attend venues and events when all patrons are fully vaccinated.

The trials will also allow real-world testing of the vaccine certification technology and confirm the best processes for establishing vaccination status.

They will also help fine-tune training for staff, support for business owners and public communication of vaccine requirements.

If you are tuning in from elsewhere in the country, note the adjusted Cox Plate race time for your time zone. The race will last for just over two minutes so make sure you are tuning in!
