Get to the event on time - and home again after.

Pre-booked transfers for sport, concerts, race days and functions, with the return leg locked in before you go. When fifty thousand people leave at once and rideshare prices triple, your fare is already fixed and your car is already booked.

Why pre-book event transport

The trip home is the one everybody forgets to plan.

Getting to a Melbourne event is easy. Leaving it, alongside a full stadium, is where an unbooked night falls apart.

No surge pricing

Your fare is fixed when you book, whatever the demand is when the final siren goes.

Return leg booked

Lock in the trip home at the same time, timed to when the event actually finishes.

Groups in one vehicle

Up to 11 in a maxi cab, so the group stays together and splits one fare.

Set pickup points

Agreed meeting spots away from stadium crowds, so you are not searching for a car.

Melbourne's event calendar, covered

Melbourne runs on events, and every one of them ends with the same problem - tens of thousands of people wanting a car in the same fifteen minutes. Pre-booking sidesteps it: the fare is agreed in advance and the pickup point is arranged away from the worst of the crowd.

  • MCG and Marvel Stadium - AFL, cricket and international fixtures
  • Rod Laver Arena and John Cain Arena - tennis and concerts
  • Flemington and Caulfield race days, including Spring Carnival
  • Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Margaret Court Arena and festival sites
  • Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre conferences
  • Private functions, corporate parties and milestone celebrations

Getting the group there and back

For groups, an 11-seat maxi cab is usually both cheaper and simpler than several separate cars - one fixed fare, one pickup point, and everybody arrives together. Multiple pickups on the way are fine; add the addresses in the note field and the route is quoted upfront.

Return trips can be booked for a set time or arranged with a little slack, which matters when a match goes to extra time or an encore runs long.

Event transfer FAQs

Event transport questions

Groups, return trips, pickup points and pricing for Melbourne events.

Yes, and we strongly recommend it. Book both legs together and the return is held at your nominated time, at a fare fixed on the day you book rather than set by demand when the event ends.

No. Your fare is fixed at the moment you confirm the booking. Surge pricing does not apply, so a Grand Final or a sold-out concert costs the same as any other night.

At an agreed pickup point, usually set slightly away from the venue to avoid road closures and crowd congestion. The location is confirmed with your booking and your driver contacts you when nearby.

Yes. An 11-seat maxi cab keeps the whole group together on one fixed fare, which is normally cheaper than booking three or four separate cars.

Let us know the expected finish and we allow for overruns. If a match goes to extra time or a show runs long, contact your driver and the pickup is adjusted.

Yes. Add each address in the note field when booking and the multi-stop route is quoted upfront as a single fixed fare.
