Southern Star Observation Wheel

Operations are temporarily suspended until further notice.

Southern Star is Australia's only giant observation wheel and has changed Melbourne's skyline with its amazing, distinctive style. Located within the dynamic Waterfront City precinct at Docklands, Southern Star is just a few minutes from Melbourne's CBD.

Southern Star presents a spectacular experience that's like nothing on earth. Day or night, guests experience the euphoria of soaring flight within Southern Star's orbit. Rising gently to 120 metres, each of Southern Star's 21 air-conditioned cabins carries up to 20 guests on a unique 30-minute experience.

Featuring the latest in technology and contemporary design, guests enjoy walk-around convenience and spectacular 360-degree views. With breathtaking panoramic vistas of Melbourne, Port Phillip Bay and up to 40 kilometres beyond, no two experiences are alike with the colours and moods of Melbourne forever changing.

Groups of all sizes can experience the most stunning special events venue in Australia with exquisite in-cabin catering and celebrations within the finely appointed Star Room. Guests may also explore Harbour Town and Waterfront City, combining up to 200 brand direct outlets and specialty stores with exciting restaurants, cafés and bars.
