Experience Melbourne from 300 metres above and plan your Skydeck visit for the best city views. Knowing the opening hours ensures you can experience everything from panoramic 360° views to thrilling attractions like The Edge or a gourmet meal with Altitude Dining at Eureka 89.

Skydeck is open daily, but peak times, especially sunset can get busy, so booking ahead guarantees you won't miss a moment of this iconic Melbourne experience. Check out the opening hours below and get ready for an unforgettable visit above the city skyline.

Tips to enjoy Melbourne Skydeck without the crowds

  • Visit on weekdays: Mondays to Thursdays generally have fewer visitors, giving you a calmer experience and better photo opportunities.
  • Avoid peak sunset times: Sunset is stunning but busy; try visiting an hour before or after for a more relaxed experience.
  • Use the Sun & Stars pass: Split your visit between day and night views, returning within 36 hours to avoid peak crowds.
  • Explore VR experiences first: Head to Voyager Theatre and VR Plank early, as these attractions tend to fill later in the day.
  • Take photos from quieter spots: Skip the main terrace for lesser-known corners of the Skydeck walkway with equally great views.
