\n\tThe booking brings one of Australia\u2019s biggest dance exports back to Flemington after his 2025 appearance helped establish The Elms Live Stage as a major post-race music destination. This year, the Off the Rails closing party will again see the rails of the famous Flemington racecourse opened after racing concludes, allowing crowds to gather for FISHER\u2019s festival-style set.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cFISHER delivered the most electrifying and memorable performance for thousands of event goers at Flemington last year, and we can\u2019t wait for him to return to headline the Off the Rails party celebrating the final day of the 2026 Melbourne Cup Carnival, complementing world-class racing on TAB Champions Stakes Day,\u201d VRC chief executive officer Kylie Rogers said in a statement.<\/p>\n

\n\tFISHER broke through internationally with \u201cLosing It,\u201d the 2018 tech-house track that spent 17 weeks on Billboard\u2019s Dance Club Songs chart and hit No. 1 in December 2018. The song also earned a Grammy nomination for best dance recording.<\/p>\n

\n\tSince then, the Gold Coast-born artist has become a major festival and club draw, known for high-volume house sets and an irreverent stage presence that has made him a fixture across global dance circuits.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLast year\u2019s Melbourne Cup Carnival closing party was epic; the crowd was electric,\u201d FISHER said. \u201cI can\u2019t wait to do it all again at Flemington Racecourse on November 7. Giddy up.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 2026 Melbourne Cup Carnival begins with Howden Victoria Derby Day on Saturday, Oct. 31, followed by Lexus Melbourne Cup Day on Tuesday, Nov. 3, Crown Oaks Day on Thursday, Nov. 5, and TAB Champions Stakes Day on Saturday, Nov. 7.<\/p>\n

\n\tVRC said more Melbourne Cup Carnival entertainment announcements will be revealed soon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
