Melbourne Expands Free Tram Zone to MCG Ahead of Major City Events

Getting around Melbourne just got easier – and cheaper

Commuters and sports fans in Melbourne have reason to celebrate as the Victorian government officially extends the city’s free tram zone. From Wednesday, 24 September, trams on routes 48, 70, and 75 now travel fare-free all the way to the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), offering seamless rides from the CBD straight to the stadium gates. The timing coincides with the AFL Grand Final and Melbourne Royal Show, where transport services are ramping up to manage record crowds. Extra trains and trams will operate throughout the festivities, ensuring easy travel between city attractions and event venues.
