M3DE Cross Country Day - June 7, 2009
On Sunday June 7, the Melbourne 3 Day Event will be running its cross country phase through the magnificent Werribee Park Mansion Grounds and State Rose Garden. In order to do so safely, the venue has changed access arrangements for this day.
All visitors to Werribee Mansion, the State Rose Garden, the Mansion Grounds and the Melbourne 3 Day Event must enter through the National Equestrian Centre entrance (Gate C). Changed conditions of entry will be clearly signed and traffic managers and volunteers will be on hand to assist you in finding your way. All visitors attending the park on June 7 will need to pay M3DE admission prices. Click here for more information.
Elderly and disabled visitors will be able to use the courtesy bus provided to be shuttled from the National Equestrian Centre to various locations on course. Please advise gate staff if you have elderly or disabled visitors with you, and you will be directed to park near the courtesy bus pick-up point.
The Melbourne 3 Day Event would like to thank the other Werribee Park stakeholders; Parks Victoria, Werribee Open Range Zoo and the Sofitel Mansion Hotel and Spa for their assistance in making this fabulous day of equestrian sport possible.
