Melbourne Cup day 2017, the race that stops the nation, is very quickly approaching.
On Tuesday 7th of November, 2017, at precisely 3:00 pm, the race will start. But, letโs be honest โ thatโs not the only reason weโre looking forward to that second Tuesday in November.
Melbourne Cup is undoubtedly one of Australiaโs most prestigious events and boy, do we embrace it with gusto.
For most of us, itโs about dressing up, indulging and peaking in at the glamorous tents and birdcage marquees that are a chance for Australiaโs top brands to sell themselves to the rich and famous. The competition is as fierce as the horse race.
Take a look at some of the birdcage marquees popping up over the last week.
Maritimo have partnered with @ghmummau for this yearโs carnival with a Maritimo S59 motor yacht forming the visual heart of Mummโs exclusive โYacht Clubโ themed marquee.
