Mercedes-Benz Gold Coast celebrated the 2021 Melbourne Cup with a stunning soiree at oceanfront restaurant Hyde Paradsio. 

The venue was awash with pastels and shades of spring and featured all the trimmings – floral arrangements, Mercedes-Benz decor and a deluxe grazing station. 

Hosted by Dan Anstey, the day was filled with racing, glamour, fun and of course the fashions on the field.

The invitation-only event attracted over 75 guests who enjoyed gourmet canapes, hors d’oeuvres and a selection of beer, wine and cocktails as well as prizes from Pacific Fair, CAMILLA and Peppers Soul. 

Fashionable and fascinating ladies and gents took to the catwalk to display their look to guest judges from CAMILLA, bringing lots of style, grace and swagger to the stage.

A big thanks to race day partners Pacific Fair, Hyde Paradiso, SeaFM and CAMILLA.
