Attended the venue during the evening mid week for the fabulous Robbie Williams music concert. Venue is easy to get to via any metro train stopping at Jolimont or Richmons stations, or the #70 tram. If driving, park in neaby Richmond around Swan St and enjoy a meal or drink and shirt stroll to the venue. This is an open air venue so take something warm to wear if weather gets cold or wet. Easy and quick to get to get entry into. Lots of signage inside venue indicating where you need to go to find your seat. Sufficient number of food stalls selling take away food but at high prices. Likewise drink stalls. Bottled water $5.40@ with alcohol drink prices north of that. Max 4 alcohol drinks sold at one time. Lots of free drinking water points. Perimeter seating up in the stands accessible by steep steps. Plastic fold down seating typical of sports venues and need to stand to allow others to pass along your isle. I found the seating here uncomfortable but that might be just me. Very congested at departure time. Be prepared to move along slowly in the large mass or prudently exit a bit early to avoid the crush. Took us about 15 minutes to exit venue in the mass. For a music concert I found we were miles away from the stage with Robbie looking like a small leggo figure on the far away stage. Thank goodness for the huge screens either side of the stage. Given this is a sporting field it is expected your going to be long way from stage. Tennis Centre better venue for concerts but lacks crowd capacity of here. Had a great time, sore bum from seat but hey....got to see Robbie perform.

Beautiful and big stadium with great facilities. We came here to watch FiFa world cup asian qualifiers soccer match between Vietnam vs Australia. Close to 28k supporters attented the match. Such a wonderful atmosphere. Can really feel and sense the sporty spirit here. All the staffs were very friendly. Entry ticket scanning was super quick and easy. You can bring food and drinks in as long as the drink is no more than 750ml. They also sell drinks and food inside. Beer for $10/cup. Cup holder (for 4 cups) is $1 each. They offered $10 voucher for food and drink for the first 2000 people who came first. So go early if you want this. Also have merchandise shop selling team's t-shirts, scarfs, hats, etc. Lots of police to ensure the safety and for traffic control. Best to take public transport, otherwise having some paid car park nearby but very limited unless you come really early. Can drive around and park in the side street but expect 15-20 mins walk to the stadium. Overall, great experience.

The stadium itself is amazing, it has a great design, lights colouring it at night from the outside and the seats are structured around the field in a more vertical manner, rather than pushing them further away from the field. So the view is great from anywhere! However, the atmosphere at a Storm game is very poor. The announcer is rude and doesn't bother announce the away team players, the mascot sets an extremely bad example for children, taking a stuffed animal from their opponents and jumping on it in wrestling moves to degrade it... I'm surprised the NRL allow it! The majority of the fans are very aggressive when their team loses and I have even been kicked out of my paid members seat by security for cheering for the opposition! So the stadium is great, but the experience you have there is affected by the poor club culture, from the violently angry coach Craig Bellamy to the poor sportsmanship players Cameron Munster setting bad examples for both adult and child fans alike.

The venue itself its amazing. Last time I went was for the FIFA Women’s World Cup. USA v Sweden. Great atmosphere with high quality sound that makes attendance engage and participate. Being a very small stadium (for a soccer international event) makes you feel in the game. What I still don’t understand is why it’s almost impossible to find tickets when you can see there is still about 1% available capacity? I know this has nothing to do with the stadium itself, but each organiser. Many people, including me and many friends missed on other games we were eager to go, and it was so disappointing to see big chunks of empty seats. Everything else is good. You feel safe even blocks away from the stadium which encourage families to attend. I didn’t go to the toilets or food stalls so I won’t be able to comment.

Melbourne Rectangular Stadium, is one of Australia’s premier rectangular venues, notably acclaimed for hosting Melbourne / Naarm’s most celebrated sport and entertainment events, and will host six FIFA Women's World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023 matches, including Australia's heavyweight Group B finale with Canada. The opening-day bout between Nigeria and Canada will kick off the ground's hosting duties, before two-time winners Germany take on Morocco three days later in Group H. Jamaica-Brazil on 2 August will be the final group-stage match at the venue. Two Round-of-16 clashes are set to take place at the ground, beginning with the winner of Group G taking on the runners-up from Group E, before the team that tops Group H does battle with the second-placed side from Group F.

As Melbourne's premiere rectangular stadium, it is pretty rudimentary. The seats are just small enough to be quite uncomfortable and just in the awkward zone of intimate with your neighbour. Bars sell the usual watery beer, poured with little care and much froth. The food outlets have the usual greasy food one might expect, but with some surprisingly tasty variations... potato waffles etc. But, what really do you want from a sports venue? Probably not a la carte food and a wine list to boot. The views from your seat are pretty good in most locations and the design of the outdoor playing area is such that even a small crowd generates a lot of sound. Overall okay.
