The Channel 7 Rockingham Beach Cup Presented by Cerámico Tiles & Bathrooms is an iconic celebration that showcases Western Australia’s only beach horse racing experience, set against the stunning Rockingham foreshore. Across two unforgettable days, the event brings together locals and visitors for a vibrant weekend of entertainment, community connection, and coastal fun.

On Saturday 15 November, the festivities begin with the Rotary Community Festival at Churchill Park (2.00pm – 7.00pm). Enjoy live music, artisan markets, food stalls, and free family activities.

The excitement continues on Sunday 16 November from 10.00am - 5.00pm, as the Rotary Community Festival returns with family-friendly entertainment on and off stage, gourmet food vendors, interactive activity zones, and artisan stalls. Plus don't miss the Rockingham Centre Fashion on the Foreshore or the highlight of the day – the spectacular beachside races – begins at midday.

For those looking for a premium experience, the Palm Beach Oasis (licensed area) opens from 12.00pm, offering ticket holders a toes-in-the-sand view of the finish line, access to pop-up bars, food trucks, live DJ and band performances, access to Rockingham Centre Fashion on the Foreshore and charity auctions.

First staged in 2016 by the Rotary Club of Palm Beach WA Inc., the Rockingham Beach Cup combines two of WA’s most loved pastimes – a day at the races and a day at the beach – all in one spectacular event. Proudly supported by the City of Rockingham through its Iconic Event Funding program, the Cup has grown into one of the state’s most unique attractions.

With support from RWWA, all horses are sourced through experienced trainers, featuring a mix of current and recently retired racehorses, with safety a top priority. Skilled jockeys ensure a professional yet relaxed racing experience. Unlike traditional race meets, there is no betting and no whips used – making this a truly community-focused event.

Funds raised from the Rockingham Beach Cup support vital causes, benefitting Variety, MSWA, and Palm Beach Rotary community projects.
