Melbourne Cricket Ground

The MCG is the most famous (and biggest) sports stadium in the country. Its truly an impressive ground with a lot of history behind it too (years of cricket, football, Olympics and Commonwealth Games to name just a few). If youre visiting Melbourne, or have just never had the chance to come here before, then you must come check it out. Its a big part of Melbournes heart. One handy little tip, especially if you want to bring tourists here for a quick experience: at some football matches they actually allow free entry into the ground for the last quarter of the match. That means you will get to see about 30 minutes of the match, just enough for your friends to get a taste for the game, the ground and the crowd.

The MCG is the iconic Melbourne sporting venue. Cricket is played there in summer and football in winter. A great venue, well organised and easy to get around and find your seats. The grounds also run fully guided tours so you can see behind the scenes. A must for any sporting fan.
