Melbourne Royal staff and Board were saddened to hear of the recent passing of Kathleen Cust.

It’s been an exciting start to our new membership year at Melbourne Royal with our highly anticipated 175th Celebration Gala Dinner being held in Victoria Pavilion at Melbourne Showgrounds on Saturday 1 April. The Celebration Gala Dinner was a wonderful evening to officially launch our 175th anniversary celebrations for the year. I thank all the Melbourne Royal members, volunteers, exhibitors, life-long supporters and valued partners who attended evening to share stories and memories with each other and enjoy a fabulous evening of dining and dancing.

We are saddened to hear about the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and extend our condolences and deepest sympathies to the Royal Family.
