A bit of rain doesn’t dampen The Fox’s Fifi, Fev & Nick's Melbourne Cup live broadcast
The Fox’s Fifi, Fev & Nick crew didn't let a little rain spoil their Melbourne Cup special live broadcast from Crown Melbourne. Instead of staying outdoors, they moved the party indoors, hosting a lively pre-Cup celebration filled with humor, live music, and celebrity guests.
Indoor Celebration Highlights
The broadcast took place live from 5–7pm, replacing their usual Breakfast show hours. Over 500 guests gathered at the Crown Atrium rooftop, enjoying the company of hosts Fifi Box, Brendan Fevola, Nick Cody, and special guests Gai Waterhouse, Victoria Racing Club Chief Executive Officer Kylie Rogers, and comedian Dave “Hughesy” Hughes, all in great spirits.
Entertainment and Activities
- Live performances from ARIA Award-winning duo PNAU and Cyril
- Giveaways and live interviews
- Final public viewing of The People’s Cup, the three-handled Lexus Melbourne Cup trophy
“The drizzle yesterday was a precursor for a cold, wet and windy race that stops the nation today.”
Listeners can tune in to Fifi, Fev & Nick on Melbourne’s 101.9 The Fox weekdays from 6-9am, and also via LiSTNR.
