Any stay in Melbourne is incomplete without a visit to the city’s sporting heartbeat, the MCG. For the quintessential Melbourne visitor experience it’s hard to beat a tour of the MCG or a visit to the National Sports Museum (NSM) at the MCG.
The NSM is a must-do for any sport lover and captures the essence of Australian sporting life.
Dedicated exhibitions showcase the Olympics, Australian Rules Football, cricket, the MCG story, the Sport Australia Hall of Fame and the Melbourne Cricket Club’s own museum.
The NSM also features leading interactive technology in an area of ‘hands-on’ fun known as Game On, plus 3D theatre experiences with cricketing great, Shane Warne and Australian football legend, James Hird.
Over the 2011/12 summer as part of museum entry you can also catch the Hidden History of the MCG exhibition (until April 2012) celebrating the quirky and unusual stories about this famous stadium.
Combine your museum visit with a behind-the-scenes tour of the MCG, available on all non-match days.
