Arts Centre Melbourne is a multi-venue performing arts complex situated in the Southbank precinct of Melbourne. Originally opened in 1984 as the Victorian Arts Centre, it comprises multiple theatres including Hamer Hall (the primary concert venue for orchestral performances), the State Theatre, Playhouse, Fairfax Studio and smaller spaces. The complex was built on the site of former railway yards and is notable for its distinctive spire which has become an iconic element of the Melbourne skyline. It hosts a wide range of performances including music, theatre, dance, opera and ballet, and serves as a significant cultural landmark for Victoria. The building underwent major redevelopments completed in 2023 enhancing accessibility and performance capabilities.
