Volvo Ocean Race | Melbourne Race Village Opens

December 27, 2017 - December 28, 2017
Melbourne Race Village opens

Melbourne is the sporting and cultural capital of Australia.

Melbourne was the Volvo Ocean Race’s best kept secret until January, when it was unveiled as a surprise addition to the 2017-18 route. A city renowned for hosting annual premium sporting events, such as, the Australian F1 Grand Prix and the Australian Open tennis, the Volvo Ocean Race is in good company. Home to Australia’s best and most stylish shopping, Victoria’s capital has a passion for eating and drinking and supports a flourishing arts scene. The boats will be arriving here around Christmas, which is the perfect time to enjoy the sandy beaches and all the other possible outdoor activities, from white-water rafting to spectacular drives along Victoria’s coastline.

*A compressed stopover, there is no time to stage an In-Port Race as the crew get the rest they need before heading back into the Southern Ocean.
