About this venue
PICA is a park-style event space set within a repurposed industrial complex in Port Melbourne—keeping the raw feel of high ceilings and wide thoroughfares while letting production and staging transform it into a high-impact destination for concerts, DJ showcases, and festivals. That mix of industrial architecture and open-plan scale is what makes the venue stand out on Melbourne’s live-events map.
Inside, the experience is built around a large, flexible footprint that adapts to each setup—from dense standing crowds to zoned areas with bars and food points. With clear sightlines and a robust structure, attention stays where it should: on the performance, punchy sound, and crowd energy.
For micro-location, the Address is 1 Thackray Rd, Port Melbourne VIC 3207, Melbourne, Australia. The entry is oriented to Thackray Road; if you’re arriving by car, plan for nearby street parking and industrial-area lots, and for a quick drop-off it’s easiest to pull in right by the venue.

About the city: Melbourne
Melbourne, a vibrant metropolis on the shores of Port Phillip Bay, is not only Australia’s cultural and culinary hub, but also a city where major events feel effortless. From top-tier sports spectacles to concerts and live shows, Melbourne has a reputation for organizing, hosting, and entertaining with ease—an energy you can sense in its streets, neighborhoods, and around its main arenas and stadiums.
What makes planning especially smooth for visitors is excellent transport infrastructure. The city is connected by the Metro Trains rail network and the iconic Yarra Trams, making it easy to reach arenas and stadiums from almost anywhere. If you fly into Melbourne Airport (Tullamarine), a convenient link takes you toward the city via Southern Cross Station, one of the key transport hubs, while Flinders Street Station is the city’s most famous and most important rail centerpiece—an ideal starting point before or after an event.
Since you’re coming for tickets, it’s worth adding a sightseeing bonus. Before the concert or after the match, stroll along the Yarra River, explore laneways filled with cafés and galleries, or unwind in the Royal Botanic Gardens. In the heart of the city you’ll find Federation Square and classic city views, while the riverfront in Southbank creates a perfect backdrop for an evening walk and a great meal. Melbourne is a city where the event can be the highlight of the night, and the whole trip becomes a complete experience.
