Travel instructions

Train - Southern Cross Station is virtually on the doorstep which is very convenient as most metropolitan lines, and all regional lines, go through Southern Cross. Coming from a train platform at Southern Cross Station, head to the northern end of the platform (the Etihad stadium end). Take the lift up to the Bourke Street concourse. Once you reach the concourse, you should see the NAB building almost immediately as it is the first building on the right over the tracks. Tram - Trams that stop at Southern Cross station include: Spencer Street routes – 12, 48, 75, 96, 109 & City Circle, Collins Street routes – 11, 12, 42 & 109, Bourke Street routes – 86 & 96. Taxi - The taxi drop off point at 700 Bourke Street is located opposite the Channel Nine studios. The taxi rank located outside Platform 28 night club can also be used as a drop off point. The Platform 23 rank is recommended as the pick up point when booking taxis for return journeys home.

Entry instructions

The Arena is located on the Concourse level. There are two main entrances on Bourke Street concourse (the pedestrian bridge extension of Bourke Street) – level 2 or Taxi drop off – level P1 (see taxi information below for details). From the P1 entrances there is lift, escalator and stair options to take you to Concourse level. Look out for the VCOSS volunteers to ask directions. They’ll be wearing their VCOSS lanyards. If you need assistance at either Southern Cross or Flinders Street stations, get in touch with Travellers Aid. They provide a buggy service, mobility aid hire and companion assistance amongst other things.
