The Fox’s Fifi, Fev & Nick’s Melbourne Cup Live Broadcast Shines Despite Rain
The Fox’s Fifi, Fev & Nick did not let a bit of rain spoil their Melbourne Cup special live broadcast from Crown Melbourne. Instead of the usual outdoor festivities, they moved the party indoors, hosting a lively pre-Cup celebration packed with laughter, live music, and celebrity guests.
Event Details and Guests
The broadcast aired live from 5–7pm, deviating from their usual Breakfast show hours. Over 500 guests gathered at the Crown Atrium rooftop, where personalities like Fifi Box, Brendan Fevola, Nick Cody, Gai Waterhouse, Victoria Racing Club Chief Executive Officer Kylie Rogers, and Dave “Hughesy” Hughes were in great spirits.
“It looks like the drizzle yesterday was a precursor for a cold, wet and windy race that stops the nation today.”
Entertainment Highlights
Live performances from ARIA Award-winning duo PNAU and Cyril energized the crowd. Attendees also enjoyed giveaways, live interviews, and the last public appearance of The People’s Cup, the three-handled Lexus Melbourne Cup trophy.
