Luggage rules and storage at Marvel Stadium

Marvel Stadium is a multi-purpose venue at 740 Bourke Street in Docklands that hosts sporting events, concerts and entertainment gatherings. The stadium does allow suitcases and larger bags inside, as long as they fit safely under your seat without impeding access. There's no clear-bag rule, but the venue encourages travelling light and suggests any bag you do bring should be no bigger than A3 size.

Glass containers and alcohol can't come in at all. The stadium runs its own free cloaking service at Gate 1 Guest Services on Level 1, Aisle 3, and at Gate 5 Guest Services on Level 1, Aisle 36, which is the simplest fallback if your bag won't fit under a seat.

Bag and entry policies can shift depending on the event, so check the event page before you set off.

Getting to the stadium with bags

Southern Cross Station is the major rail and coach hub serving Docklands, handling metropolitan, regional and interstate trains as well as airport transfers.

An elevated pedestrian footbridge about 20 metres wide links the station directly to Marvel Stadium and the corner of Spencer and Bourke Streets, so you can walk between the two without crossing traffic. By tram, routes 30, 35, 70, 75 and 86 stop at the stadium itself via La Trobe Street and Harbour Esplanade, while routes 11, 48 and 96 stop nearby on Spencer, Bourke or Collins Street. You can also approach the venue from Bourke Street, La Trobe Street or Harbour Esplanade if arriving on foot or by car. SkyBus runs express coaches from both Tullamarine and Avalon airports into Southern Cross, so if you're flying in with bags and heading straight to an event, that's the route to plan around.
