The Quokka – 18 April 2026
Get ready for WA’s richest raceday, as Quokka Day (supported by Western Australia, Walking on a Dream) returns bigger, bolder, and more electrifying than ever. The headline event of the Ascot Autumn Racing Carnival, Quokka Day brings world-class racing, huge crowds, and an atmosphere that takes over the entire racecourse.
With $5 million on the line, The Quokka is Australia’s equal fifth-richest thoroughbred sprint, drawing elite horses, star jockeys, and nationwide attention. Beyond the track, enjoy the excitement of Fashions on the Field and a live band after the last, keeping the celebration pumping into the evening.
