Adelaide Cup Day brings a vibrant festival atmosphere to Morphettville Racecourse with live music all day from some of Australia's biggest DJs, including Touch Sensitive and DJ Horizon.
It's all part of Adelaide Cup Day's new-look Starting Gate Precinct, combining all the on-track action of the races with trackside entertainment and a range of gourmet food options such as local Italian food specialists Pizzateca serving up wood-fired pizzas.
With headline performances from Touch Sensitive and DJ Horizon, racegoers will also be treated to live sets from Dancespace and BORNA while enjoying the extensive hospitality on offer.
The Starting Gate Precinct also features necessities like a Nailbreak and pop-up beauty station, bars from Canadian Club and Furphy, a spritz and espresso martini bar plus there's even a Spendless Shoes station, so no one has to leave barefooted.

“We’ve seen an increase in younger attendees at Morphettville Racecourse on TAB Adelaide Cup Day in recent years and have tailored the Starting Gate package to this vibrant audience,” Morphettville Racecourse Marketing Manager, Luke Schapel says.
“With world-class DJs and plenty of Instagram opportunities, we know that racegoers will be impressed by the fresh look of Morphettville Racecourse at the Starting Gate.”
Returning to the Starting Gate this year is the iconic Ferris Wheel, offering views over Morphettville Racecourse in all its glory and allowing punters the chance to take in the ambience of what will be one of Morphettville’s biggest parties ever.
After its highly successful Spring Carnival debut, the AAMI VIP Marquee will return to the Starting Gate precinct offering the perfect option for those looking for the best of both worlds in an exclusive atmosphere.
