When you are in Melbourne you can actually feel the buzz around sport, it’s tangible. With one in eight tourists listing sport as their main reason for visiting the city, it is easy to see why there are so many great pubs showing sport. We love the options you get from Melbourne's many hubs. Richmond’s pregame vibe down Swan street, Fitzroy’s artsy eccentricities, Collingwood's local feel and St Kilda’s sun-drenched beer gardens are all highlights for us. These venues below are known to locals as the best places to see the game, fight or race. What you will generally find is that the commentary will be on, the grub will be superb and there will be multiple screens for your viewing pleasure. If you are visiting Melbourne this list may be a good starting point if you are a local then why not try a new haunt? This list will grow and change as we visit more venues. We are always open to suggestions for additions so feel free to nominate your local.
