Travel
Melbourne has an excellent public transport network, making it easy to navigate the city centre and reach the Albert Park Australian Grand Prix. Parking is not permitted on site, and with high traffic levels we recommend using the frequent public transport links as opposed to driving. If you must use your own car, park in the suburbs around Melbourne to avoid queueing.
Coaches and Buses
There are a range of buses and coaches available to shuttle you to the circuit from your accommodation, running at frequent intervals.
Train and Tram
If you are arriving by Metropolitan or Regional train services, the most convenient travel option is to take another train to Southern Cross station. Here, you can change to the free tram service which runs directly from Southern Cross and Flinders Street station to Albert Park.
Check your tickets for which circuit entrance gate you need to get off the tram at.
