Embracing community spirit with tradition reimagined with fresh flair

Bong Bong Picnic Race Club, August 2025

There’s something magical about the Bong Bong Picnic Race Day—a spirited blend of heritage, heart, and high-stakes fun that draws crowds from across the Highlands and beyond. This year, the beloved event is galloping into exciting new territory, with fresh features that promise to make Race Day 2025 the most memorable yet.

The public marquee returns—bigger, better, and brighter

We’re delighted to announce the return of our Go Hire Public Marquee, now bigger and better than ever. Featuring clear walls for uninterrupted views, live music, and a vibrant atmosphere, it’s the ultimate spot to relax and revel in the day’s festivities. Conveniently located near the Roadside Bar and Food Court, it’s the perfect hub for racegoers to gather, graze, and groove.

Fashion on the Field: $10,000 prize pool

Elegance meets excitement in this year’s Fashion on the Field, where creativity and style will be rewarded like never before. With a $10,000 prize pool, we’re inviting racegoers to bring their boldest looks, timeless classics, and regional flair to the runway. Whether you’re a seasoned fashionista or a first-time entrant, this is your moment to shine.

Thank you to our wonderful community for your generous support of Fashions on the Field. Your contributions make this celebration of style and spirit truly unforgettable. We’re so grateful!

Giveaways with heart

We’re adding a playful twist to Race Day with new giveaways that celebrate our community’s spirit. From locally sourced hamper full of treats to a Bong Bong Picnic Race Club merchandise pack, these tokens of appreciation are our way of saying thank you—for showing up, dressing up, and cheering on.

A toast to our sponsors and community

Bong Bong Picnic Race Day wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of our sponsors—new and returning —whose belief in our event helps it grow year after year. We’re equally grateful to our community, whose enthusiasm and pride make Race Day more than just a date on the calendar. It’s a celebration of who we are.

As we prepare to open the gates, we invite everyone to be part of this year’s story. Whether you’re racing, reveling, or simply reconnecting, Bong Bong Picnic Race Day is ready to welcome you with open arms and a few surprises up its sleeve, embracing community spirit every step of the way.
