One mobile pass, three consecutive days: the Melbourne City Card condenses the city’s best viewpoints, wildlife encounters and cultural sites into a single, skip-the-line experience. Perfect for first-timers and repeat visitors who want efficient, flexible access.
You swipe the mobile pass and the city opens: the Skydeck lifts you above a grid of laneways and tramlines, the MCG hums with echoes of cricket crowds, and the Yarra glints as the river cruise nudges past graffiti-strewn wharves. A three-day Melbourne City Card feels less like a ticket and more like permission to sample the city's public life—sporting history, seaside escapes and wildlife encounters—without the friction of purchasing a dozen separate admissions.

The card starts when you first scan it—plan which site kicks off your three consecutive days to maximize value.
Some attractions bundled with the card still require advance booking—check the app for Arthurs Seat and MCG tour slots before you go.
The pass covers attractions but not all public transport; a Myki card makes hopping between sites faster and cheaper.
The pass is mobile-only for redemption—keep a charged phone or power bank to avoid access issues.
Melbourne grew rapidly after European settlement in the 1830s and became a center for commerce and sport; places like the MCG reflect the city’s long sporting traditions.
Healesville Sanctuary and local zoos participate in native species breeding and rehabilitation programs—visiting supports conservation funding; be mindful of wildlife viewing etiquette and avoid single-use plastic.
You’ll cover museums, zoos and city streets—supportive shoes make long days easier.
Melbourne weather changes quickly; a lightweight waterproof keeps plans on track.
