Take flight with the Melbourne Star on your next school excursion and give your students a totally new outlook, where the unique attractions of inner Melbourne and the Bay unroll before you: lush gardens, award-winning architecture, sports stadiums, and cultural precincts, all waiting to be discovered.
Melbourne Star’s 40-storey high structure provides uninterrupted 360-degree views of Victoria. The Melbourne Star experience is your unique introduction to the colour, history, and culture of our city and beyond. Whether you know and love Melbourne, or are a first time visitor to the cultural capital, it’s a spectacular way to get your bearings.
With its stunning light show and striking scale, the Melbourne Star is a glittering jewel in the sky above Melbourne’s Docklands. The unique “Star within a Star” design represents the seven-pointed Federation Star of the Australian flag which is transformed at night by a kaleidoscope of colours in a spectacular LED display.
Outstanding outlooks across all four points of the compass, from the Dandenongs to the You Yangs, to Mount Macedon and nearby Port Phillip Bay.
For locals, interstate and international visitors to Melbourne alike, the Melbourne Star delivers a truly world-class attraction experience.
