Welcome to the Rockhampton Jockey Club where thoroughbred horse racing is conducted 45 times a year at Callaghan Park.

The Club was formed in 1868 and since that date has continued to grow to become one of the largest provincial thoroughbred racing Clubs in Queensland.

The Club conducts the popular XXXX Gold Winter Racing Carnival in June each year which culminates with the running of the Rockhampton Cup to be held on Saturday, June 23, 2012 and the popular Spring Carnival with race meetings that coincide with Caulfield Cup (Saturday, October 20, 2012) and Melbourne Cup Days (Tuesday, November 6, 2012).

The Club completed a major $6.5M track redevelopment in January 2010 which has made the racing surface at Callaghan Park the envy of Queensland Racing.

In November 2011 the Club commenced work on a $2M redevelopment of the Members Grandstand which is due to be completed in March 2012. The Club is confident that the new facility will be popular for race days and non race day events with a state of the art function centre capable of seating 150 guests.

Callaghan Park is the perfect spot for a great day out  - great racing, catering, facilities and service.
We look forward to welcoming you to Callaghan Park soon.
