What’s on in May at Melbourne Park 

From powerhouse performances and sporting rivalries to grand-scale family spectacles, May at Melbourne Park is packed with entertainment for all ages.

Here’s what’s coming up this month:

For music lovers

Melbourne Park is set to welcome a diverse lineup of global artists throughout May. 

At Rod Laver Arena, punk rock legends The Offspring will get things rolling with two massive shows on 7 and 8 May, with support from Simple Plan. These two rock titans will be followed by Grammy nominee Gracie Abrams, who, after wrapping up the Asia leg of her tour, brings her heartfelt lyrics and indie-pop charm to Rod Laver Arena for the first time from 9 to 11 May. Japanese pop sensation Ado will close out the month on 27 May with a high-energy show filled with stunning visuals and powerhouse vocals. 

After kicking off The Elevation Tour at the Red Hot Summer Festival, ZZ Top returns on 7 May with their unmistakable Southern rock sound for what promises to be an unforgettable night of rock ‘n’ roll at Margaret Court Arena. 

Hong Kong rock icon Yip Sai Wing will take the stage at John Cain Arena on 17 May, followed by American pop-rock favourites Train – best known for sing-alongs like ‘Drops of Jupiter’ and ‘Hey, Soul Sister’ – on 22 May.
