Two of Adelaide’s most iconic pubs, The Stag on Rundle Street and Republic on Magill Road. are teaming up for the first time to bring you the best Balaklava Cup ever. We’ll drink to that!
On Wednesday the 31st of August, six busloads of race-goers will pour into ‘The Stag VS Republic’s’ one of a kind VIP marquee, where they will be able to dance the day away in style and warmth!
“The marquee will be the ultimate place to spend the day. There’ll be two bars, a chill out zone, heaters and a pumping dance floor,” says Stephen Lee, manager of Republic.
