Attracting a younger audience to the races underpins Racing NSW’s strategy and ‘The Big Dance‘, a fresh $2 million, 1600m race at Randwick on Melbourne Cup day, will be an important cog in that wheel.

According to today’s Sunday Telegraph, Seven’s live broadcast of The Big Dance from Royal Randwick will commence immediately after the Melbourne Cup race on 10. The Big Dance will run at 3.30pm AEDT.

The Big Dance was confirmed today (more here), but it would now run 30 minutes before Melbourne Cup race, and will be shown live on Seven.

Seven is also set to broadcast The Big Dance, live, free and exclusive from Royal Randwick on Tuesday, 1 November 2022. Led by the incomparable Bruce McAvaney, racing’s #1 commentary team will be in full force for the monumental occasion, including former Sunrise co-host and Farmer Wants A Wife special guest, Samantha Armytage.

Also bringing viewers all the excitement of The Big Dance, will be 7Racing’s own Jason Richardson, Emily Bosson, Jess Bott and Grace Hayden live from Randwick.
