Melbourne is known for its unpredictable weather, so maintaining a premium outdoor experience at the VRC Club Stand presented a significant challenge. The design needed to accommodate the open-air nature of racing while providing comfort and uninterrupted views, blending in seamlessly with the contemporary and elegant surroundings.

Heatray’s Electric Radiant Heaters (ERHs) were installed across the venue to address these challenges. These heaters, known for their non-glowing, discreet profile, offer effective close proximity heating without compromising architectural integrity.

The Club Stand's design features curvilinear and sculptural forms that are both visually striking and functional, providing shelter and uninterrupted views. Customised canopies link the main building to the betting areas, offering weather-protected walkways and transition zones.

In addition to this, and in keeping with the highly refined ethos of the venue, integrating ERHs by Heatray ensures that the Club Stand remains a comfortable and refined space for patrons, regardless of Melbourne’s varied climate. These heaters provide low-intensity warmth ideal for the stand’s lower undercover areas, making them a perfect match for the venue’s high standards of aesthetics and performance.
