A Bit of Rain Doesn’t Stop The Fox’s Fifi, Fev & Nick Melbourne Cup Broadcast
The Fox’s Fifi, Fev & Nick team didn’t let light rain spoil their Melbourne Cup special broadcast from Crown Melbourne. Instead, they moved the party indoors, hosting a lively pre-Cup celebration filled with humor, live music, and celebrity guests.
Event Details and Guests
Broadcast live from 5–7pm, shifting from their usual breakfast show hours, the event drew over 500 guests to the Crown Atrium rooftop. Present were Fifi Box, Brendan Fevola, Nick Cody, Gai Waterhouse, Victoria Racing Club CEO Kylie Rogers, and comedian Dave “Hughesy” Hughes — all in high spirits.
Special Highlights
- Live performances by ARIA Award-winning duo PNAU and artist Cyril
- Giveaways and live interviews throughout the event
- The final public display of The People’s Cup, the three-handled Lexus Melbourne Cup trophy
“It looks like the drizzle yesterday was a precursor for a cold, wet and windy race that stops the nation today.”
