The 1600m quality handicap, which will be run at Kembla Grange Racecourse’s standalone meeting, has gone from strength to strength since its inception in 2019.
The Gong Race Day, which has become a highlight on the region’s social calendar, has a 10-event program including The Illawarra Mercury The Gong & the meeting’s other feature race, The $300,000 Snap Wollongong The Warra.

Grammy Award-winning DJ Riton will be playing live on the day. There will also be food trucks, pop up bars, fashions on the field, The Little Gong Precinct, & other entertainment.
