MELBOURNE CUP 2025

We are thrilled to announce the highlight of the spring season – Cafe Sydney Melbourne Cup lunch, with the charismatic Melissa Hoyer joining the incredibly suave Todd Cummins as MC.

Melissa Hoyer is a highly respected media commentator, journalist, presenter, and editorial contributor with a career spanning more than 25 years. With roles throughout her impressive career including fashion editor at one of Sydney’s major newspapers and regular spots on morning television, she is sure to raise the fashion stakes this year.

With her signature sparkle and infectious energy, Melissa is set to make this year’s Melbourne Cup Lunch an event to remember.

Toast the occasion with a glass of Perrier-Jouët Grand Brut on arrival, then enjoy a sumptuous three-course menu, with Antipodes Mineral Water served throughout the afternoon, priced at $295 per person.

Celebrate as Melissa and Todd lead us through a day of fashion, fun and festivities. Be sure to dress the part as Cafe Sydney’s trademark “money can’t buy prizes” are up for grabs, including Most Flamboyant Filly (best dressed woman), Swankiest Stallion (best dressed man); along with many wonderful lucky draw prizes.

We look forward to welcoming you to this highly anticipated event, reservations are strictly limited so don’t be the last one out the gate!
