The list of upcoming hearings is updated every Friday for hearings scheduled in the following week. All hearings conducted by the Victorian Racing Tribunal (VRT) are open to the public unless otherwise ordered by the Tribunal.
VRT hearings are held remotely via Microsoft Teams, allowing participation through audio and video link. Hearings are also held in person at our Melbourne CBD location, with occasional hearings being conducted in regional areas.
If you are a member of the public interested in observing a hearing, please contact the VRT Registry by emailing registry@vrt.vic.gov.au. Please note, for in-person hearings, due to the limited size of the hearing room in the Melbourne CBD, public attendance is facilitated through a live stream via Microsoft Teams.
It is standard practice for the VRT Registrar to record all hearings. For privacy and security reasons, the Tribunal does not allow parties or members of the public to record hearings. This approach is consistent with the practices of Victorian Courts.
Please be aware that the Tribunal reserves the right to deny observation of hearings to any member of the public who exhibits disruptive behaviour. The VRT is committed to ensuring that hearings are conducted fairly and without interruption.
