The Makybe Diva Stakes is a prestigious Group 1 thoroughbred horse race held annually in the middle of September at Melbourne's Flemington Racecourse.

This race covers a distance of 1,600 metres and serves the champion a total of $750,000 as prize money. Open to horses aged four years and older, the Makybe Diva Stakes serves as a key lead-up race to major events like the Caulfield Cup and the Melbourne Cup.
