The Great chase

DATES: SEPTEMBER – OCTOBER 2025

Welcome to the Great Chase

For more than two decades, Greyhound Racing Victoria has proudly hosted the Great Chase – a much-loved event that brings together people with intellectual and physical disabilities for a day of excitement, entertainment, and community connection.

In 2025, greyhound racing clubs across Victoria will once again open their doors for Great Chase Community Days – inclusive, all-abilities events and facilities designed to celebrate and support local disability groups.

🎉 What’s in store?
• A fun-filled day at the races
Free lunch for all attendees
• The chance to win cash prizes for your organisation
• Fully accessible venues to ensure everyone can participate

Since 2003, the Great Chase has donated almost $800,000 to disability-focused community groups across the state – and this year, your group could be next!

If you or your organisation would like to be part of this unforgettable day out, simply get in touch with your local participating greyhound racing club.  

Let’s make this year’s Great Chase the biggest and most inclusive yet!

GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY

What is the Great Chase?

First run in 2003, GRV’s Great Chase series involves a community program which has raised around $800,000 for groups that care for the intellectually and physically disabled.

How does it work?

Groups come together to enjoy a day out at their local racetrack where they receive a free meal, a chance to socialise and meet some of the heroes of our sport… the greyhounds.

The groups are randomly allocated competing greyhounds to cheer for on the day, with the best performing dogs winning prize money for their respective groups.

Who can participate?

The Great Chase community program is open to any organisation based in Victoria which cares for the intellectually or physically disabled.

Registrations for the next Great Chase community series will open in August 2025.
