As the nation grinds to a halt to watch the Melbourne Cup on Tuesday, November 5th, join the quirky, cool and glamorous team at QT Port Douglas for an afternoon of fun, frivolity and fundraising for the very deserving Children’s Hospital Foundations Australia.

Sponsored by Domaine Chandon champagne and Belvedere Vodka, QT is hosting a Melbourne Cup Charity Luncheon in Bazaar.

Beginning at noon and concluding at 2pm in time for the race (3pm AEDT), all of Bazaar’s trademark dishes will be served with a complimentary glass of Chandon on arrival for each guest.

Bookings are absolutely essential, and the ticket price is $75 per person, with $10 of each ticket sale going directly towards the Children’s Hospital Foundations Australia.

Estilo will play host to a cocktail lawn party from midday, with no bookings or tickets required. Chandon specials and jugs of Belvedere Vodka cocktails will ensure a very sophisticated affair, with prizes for best dressed male and female, a fundraising raffle and post-race entertainment courtesy of the ever charming DJ Brenton Catt.

The party will continue in Estilo all evening, including a very special Melbourne Cup edition of Taco Tuesday between 5pm and 8pm.

Join QT for a day of fun, frivolity and fundraising as Port kicks up its heels for the race that stops the nation!
