Melbourne - The Ultimate Sport City of the World… of the Decade!
Melbourne Sports Tours offer interactive and fun guided tours of Melbourne and its sporting culture. Our knowledgeable and passionate tour-hosts take you behind the scenes of Melbourne's world class sporting venues and show you why, in Melbourne, sport is a way of life.
Melbourne was crowned 'The Ultimate Sport City of The World...Of The Decade' at the 10 year anniversary SportBusiness Awards held in Switzerland in April 2016. Minister for Tourism, Events and Sport John Eren explains why HERE
With so many international standard sporting events hosted at venues all within 6 kilometres of the CBD, the city of Melbourne is made for sports tourists.
We’re home to the Australian Open Grand Slam, the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix, the MotoGP annually. Plus a long list of blockbusters other cities can only dream of staging, including:
The 2006 Commonwealth Games
The 2007 FINA World Swimming Championships
The 2010 UCI Road World Championships
The 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup
The 2015 AFC Asian Cup
The 2019 Presidents Cup
2020 ICC Women’s World Cup
Our legacy is unrivalled, but our future is just as outstanding.
Our world-class sporting precinct stands without peer. We have the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground, Marvel Stadium and AAMI Park. Add to that Melbourne Park encompassing Rod Laver Arena, Margaret Court Arena and Melbourne Arena and there really is something for everyone and the best of everything.
We have the most loyal and passionate fans too, who join visitors from all over the globe in turning out to our events each week. Which is why European giants Liverpool FC and Real Madrid CF chose our state for their overseas tours. It’s also why Sydneysiders had to come to Victoria to see a State of Origin match played in front of 90,000 fans.
The SportBusiness Ultimate Sport City Awards prove it: There’s no place on earth for sport like Melbourne.
