Another Demon great has gone, I still remember getting his autograph at The London Stores Store in the school holidays as a little kid when he and other greats of the era would do a handball comps for the 1,000s of kids, Big Nick, Teddy Whitten, Bob Skilton, Neville Crow and others.

Brian Dixon, was a central member of the great Demons team that dominated the competition in the 1950s and early 60s.

Member of the Demons Team of the Century and Australian Football Hall of Fame and a five-time premiership player in 1956, 1967, 1960 and 1964 during a 252-game career.

We Are Back to No1 in 2025

Melbourne is set to host the opening round of the 2025 Formula 1 season, returning the Australian Grand Prix to top spot on the calendar for the first time since 2019.

The 2025 Australian Grand Prix will take place on 16 March, the earliest running of the race since 2015.

The timing of Ramadan has restricted Bahrain from taking up its now traditional place at the head of the record-equalling 24-round calendar announced on Friday by Formula 1 and the FIA, with Australia picking up the slack.

It’s the first time Melbourne will host the season-opening round under the terms of its current contract, which guarantees it rights to first billing at least five times before the deal expires at the end of 2037.

After a massive 2024 make sure you contact us to book early as we will be going on sale June 1st and by the looks of it, we will sell out in days with most people wanting to rebook and increase numbers.

Things are cranking up with just under 2 weeks out from the 2023 Melbourne Cup Carnival. This year notches up 29 years Mercury Principle Events have been an official partner of the Victoria Racing Club. Unfortunately, there is no Home Straight or Winning Post Enclosures any longer, but we are still there with our premium Skyline Private facility (View from the seats attached). It only holds 90 people which is SOLD OUT on all 4 days and we also have some other clients in other facilities around the track, but it is vastly different to 2019 when both The Home Straight and Winning Post Enclosures were pumping.

There are only a few spots left for all days in some of the VRC syndicated marquees which you can view on the VRC website or give us a call to assist if you if needed.
