Midas celebrates the Race that Stops a Nation

Construction company Midas celebrated the Melbourne Cup in style with a party attended by some 300 senior representatives from Sydney’s property, architecture and interior design firms.

Held at Merivale’s cosmopolitan Ivy Pool Club in Sydney, the exclusive invite only party saw Midas playing host with vintage Dom Perignon, Moet Chandon, bespoke Uccello catering, race day cocktails, sommelier selected wines and craft beers.

The annual party turned three this year, and had a focus on building interest in Midas’ capabilities, while also simply enjoying the spectacle of race day.

Sponsored Dom Perignon, Moet Hennessy, Harrolds, Tom Ford, the Property Council of Australia and more, the Midas Melbourne Cup Carnival is annually a glamourous setting for guests to enjoy the race, and 2015 was no different, and a great time to indulge in Midas’s hospitality and network with colleagues.
