On the grounds
Three roofed arenas change the Australian Open day
Rod Laver Arena, Margaret Court Arena and John Cain Arena have retractable roofs, giving Melbourne Park several protected show-court options. A ticket still controls where you can sit, so use the official grounds and session information rather than treating every arena as open access.
Official details ↗Arrival plan
Use the city-side entrances, then leave court choices flexible
Melbourne Park lists main entrances from Olympic Boulevard and Batman Avenue, with Eastern Plaza parking. The precinct is close to central Melbourne, but a busy Australian Open session can still mean entry queues and long walks between courts, so arrive before the first match you regard as essential.
