Geelong is a large coastal city located approximately 75 kilometres southwest of Melbourne, Victoria. Historically significant as a major wool-producing centre during the 19th century, Geelong transitioned to become an important industrial hub. Its waterfront underwent substantial redevelopment in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, transforming former industrial areas into public spaces and residential zones. The city boasts a diverse economy encompassing manufacturing, health, education and tourism. Geelong is also recognised as a gateway to the Bellarine Peninsula, known for its wineries, beaches and scenic landscapes. The venue for The Meltdown's performance remains unconfirmed as of November 2023.
