Newcastle racecourse turns pink for a cause
Join us for Pink Race Day, one of the Hunter’s most iconic and vibrant community events, proudly supporting the Hunter Breast Cancer Foundation.
Held at Newcastle Racecourse, Pink Race Day combines the excitement of live racing with fashion, entertainment and heartfelt community spirit — all while raising vital funds for local families affected by breast cancer.
Guests are encouraged to dress in pink, come together trackside, and be part of a powerful show of support for one of the region’s most important local causes. A live Pink Tribute Act will wrap up the day after the last race, making it a celebration not to be missed.
Why Pink Race Day Matters
Every dollar raised from Pink Race Day helps the Hunter Breast Cancer Foundation provide free, practical support services to local people navigating breast cancer — including transport to treatment, house cleaning, lawn maintenance and comfort packs.
As a grassroots charity, HBCF relies heavily on the generosity of the local community. Pink Race Day plays a crucial role in ensuring support is available when it’s needed most — right here in the Hunter.
