Telecom Derby Day
Saturday 6th March 2010


If you love the Boxing Day races then you'll fall in love with Telecom Derby Day!

Telecom Derby Day is Auckland Cup Week's opening party - where nothing is done in half measures. Featuring New Zealand's richest race and fashions in the field event, the Ellerslie Punter of the Year competition with a $20,000 cash prize up for grabs AND the Telecom Carnival in the Ellerslie Infield - it's our equivalent of Royal Ascot!

The Telecom Carnival is the newest addition to Telecom Derby Day and it's the centre of the action! Take your perfect summer picnic in the park and combine it with entertainment from the Black Seeds, Tim Phin and People of Paris. Now throw in a premier horse race or two, a touch of fashion and glamour and you’re pretty close to what’s on offer at the Telecom Carnival at Telecom Derby Day. We think you’ll love it.
