General 2 — Maryborough Harness Racing Club

Maryborough HRC Partnerships

The club has a proud and successful history with
foundations built on passion and determination
of local people and volunteers.

MHRC has now grown to not only become one of Victoria’s most renowned Harness racing venues but one of the most regularly visited destinations in the Central Goldfields Shire. MHRC is now vital to the industry, giving opportunities to local participants and providing employment to over 20 members of staff.

Today the Club plays host to 32-day harness racing meetings at its renowned Carisbrook Complex, a complex that is enriched in history and widely recognised for its immaculate surroundings and critically acclaimed track.

This is inclusive of the Maryborough Gold Cup – an event that is fast becoming a celebration of the local Central Goldfields Shire Community.

Also, Maryborough's flagship event is the Redwood All Trotting Carnival, the most unique, popular, and successful harness racing event on Victoria's provincial calendar. This event broadcasts the Central Goldfields Shire on the national and international stage, showcasing our region and injecting a substantial boost to the local economy. It is the nation's only event that incorporates two full days of racing exclusively for trotters.

On the horizon for the Club is the pending launch of the Redwood Function Centre which aims to become the home of functions and events in Central Victoria
