Melbourne Park Events, Tennis & Function Centre Map

Melbourne Park was opened back in 1988 and was initially built for the famous Australian Open. Later, Melbourne Park became a primary venue for many sporting events; such as basketball, cycling events, netball games and even motorsport.

In January each year, Melbourne Park becomes an international hot-spot as it hosts the famous Australian Open tennis tournament.

While the area is best known for hosting the Australian Open every year, Melbourne Park also plays host to a large number of other sporting and musical events throughout the year. The venues within Melbourne Park are well utilised by many popular international performers as they boast a large seating capacity, as well as the best facilities.

Some of the arenas have retractable roofs, which mean that they are able to be utilised all-year-round. In particular, Rod Laver Arena is known to sell out during the Australian Open tennis, as well as during concerts for international artists – so it always pays to book tickets well in advance.
