Melbourne Cricket Ground — Turf Installation in Richmond, VIC

What a fabulous experience. The tour was more than I expected showing areas that the public can't normally go. The Australian Sports Museum surpassed my expectations. I spent hours looking around using the interactive resources. Allow longer than you think to see everything. The Shane Warne exhibition was short but well worth booking in for. 😁

The Melbourne Cricket Ground is an iconic landmark and a must-visit for sports lovers. The stadium is massive, well maintained, and full of history, making it special even if you’re not attending a live match. The atmosphere during events is electric, with passionate fans creating an unforgettable experience. Seating offers great views from most areas, and the facilities, including food outlets and amenities, are well organised. The surrounding parklands add to the overall charm and make it a great area to walk around. The MCG Museum is also worth visiting to learn about Australia’s rich sporting history. Overall, the Melbourne Cricket Ground delivers a world-class sporting and cultural experience and is one of Melbourne’s most iconic attractions.

Melbourne Cricket Ground stadium has the fan spirit in it. It is a wonderful place to watch all kinds of sports. There is a place to buy food, and the seats were good, even if you are far away. There are big TVs all around the stadium to give you the best experience. The staff were really helpful too guiding you to your seat and the bathroom were kept pretty clean. My only suggestion is to work on the food quality, although the food was on the expensive side. It was low quality.But overall, it was a good experience, you would really have fun and enjoy your time, especially if you are with your loved ones.

I attended the Boxing Day Ashes Test Match 2025. The MCG is one of the great cricket venues and the crowds exceeded 90000 on each day. The access system was highly efficient, and there didn't appear to be long delays queuing to go through security checks. Catering was sufficient, the typical sport venue fare. I sat at level 1 in the no-alcohol zone, and that was carefully marshalled by stewards and the police. I also sat in level 4. The view from both of my seats was good, surprisingly so for such a huge stadium. Getting to the ground is easy, taking the Metro from Southern Cross Stadium, then a short walk across from Jolimont or Richmond stations. Get off at Richmond for gates 6 and 7, Jolimont for Gate 5 or lower. An interesting series of statues of Melbourne's sporting heroes lines the paths around the ground - cricket, AFL and athletics.

One of the world’s great stadiums. On a beautiful day no better place to watch sport. Add to that the Stadium Tours & various museums no better way to spend a few hours learning about the history of the MCG & the sports played there. Must do for any sports enthusiasts.
