Australia’s heart of sports and entertainment. Melbourne Park is the proud home of seven elite national sporting teams and welcomes millions of visitors each year to experience world-class events. With a dynamic annual calendar of hundreds of events, Melbourne Park is the ultimate venue for everything from thrilling match days to intimate gatherings and spectacular arena shows. The precinct is globally renowned as the host of the Australian Open and a diverse range of sporting events, as well as concerts by the world’s biggest stars, including Elton John, Queen, P!NK, Beyoncé, Katy Perry, The Rolling Stones, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Bruce Springsteen. Recently, a monumental $972 million redevelopment, led by the Victorian Government, was completed to support Melbourne Park's growing popularity, ensuring the precinct remains a legacy for future generations of sport and entertainment lovers. This expansive 40-hectare precinct connects six iconic Melbourne venues—Rod Laver Arena, Margaret Court Arena, John Cain Arena, AAMI Park, CENTREPIECE, and Kia Arena—between the city’s bustling CBD and the tranquil Botanic Gardens, along the banks of the Yarra River. Melbourne Park is a place where unforgettable memories are made, and legendary moments unfold.
