Lakeside Stadium is a phenomenal football facility in a superb inner city location and sporting precinct that is home to most historic and successful club in Australian football (soccer), South Melbourne FC. The brand new and new only opened social club restaurant and bar area (named 1959 Bar & Grill) and the Lakeside Futsal facility really elevate this venue into a superb supporter and family venue. Given the level of activity at the stadium between football and athletics, it would be great for the state government to commit to a phased upgrade plan of the stadium to increase capacity, comfort and spectator amenities over the next 3-5 years. #FANSGRATEFUL (in advance)

At Albert Park for Greek Independence Day Parade. Roadworks and traffic all the way in. Chaos! It was not fun driving around trying to work out where to park. There was no sign to indicate gate numbers and our bus driver was confused. Took about 2 hours to get there from Lalor and thank goodness the toilets were close to the gate. The water at the lake is dirty..those birds must hate it! There was plenty of space to sit ans watch the parade and the acoustics were perfect! All in all great when you get there!

Like Central Park in New York. Wonderful tranquil place in the midst of city, place to do jogging, walking, and to have a picnic. Black swans and some other birds dominate the lake and are a beaut to watch. There are lots of sailing and rowing clubs that you can take lessons. Point restaurant is very classy. There is only a single cafe that is the yacht clubs to get a quick bite.

The track itself is fantastic, but the prevailing winds are headwinds and you’re often not allowed to use the infield for long throws due to the potential soccer field damage. The seats for the dried are also a bit far away from the track (big walkway in between seats and fence for the track) which seems to effect the buzz compared to the previous Olympic park.

Terrible parking. Took me 40mins to find a carpark. The line for the kiosk was a mile long so bring your own food & drinks. Leg room to squeeze through past other spectators is narrower than a 90s cinema. Don't plan on returning. Event planners should be smart enough to organise food trucks.

Amazing facilities, open space, great seating. Lots of toilets more than at our NSW Olympic Park Stadium, and were clean most of the day. Children had a ball and were looked after at this great place during Nationals 10-12years athletics by their own team managers and many volunteers .

Spent my 16th Birthday here at a Vfl game,saw many night games there too.Havent seen any Athletics there since Eddie knocked down Olympic Park,the best place for Athletics a real shame this was allowed to happen to such an historic arena.

Great place to go for soccer socially and a dinner if U wanted to friendly staff and people there. We held a few function there with our table soccer and it was great if U get the opportunity to go go check it out

A very impressive stadium with everything you require for an athletics event. High jump, triple jump, long jump and track all within close proximity of each other with good under cover seating available.

Excellent facilities and well looked after center field. Parking is where 'they' get you. it is expensive i assume to deter local businesses but hurts those who want to use the facility.

The best athletics venue in Victoria, where Victorian and National championships are held. Great facilities for spectators and athletes, but changerooms and showers are hard to find.

I didn't go to an event here but spent a long time looking around and seeing the scenery and the views.it was really amazing. Worth a visit even when there isn't anything going on.

It's got a good track, good grass good facilities. The only downside is the shade. I often find the stands get too hot from either a lack of ventilation or a lack of shade

The place is very neat and has great services, as expected the canteen there has somewhat high prices but that was okay. Overall positives weigh out the negatives.

Well organised Little Athletics Vic sports meet last Saturday. Great planning job done by the organisers and officials in running the events. Well done....!!!!

Love the facilities here and have competed there multiple times. Always very fun and would recommend going if you need to train or there is an event there

Historic and rustic, but limited facilities. A very pretty grandstand. Can be entertain to watch teams practice, or a cricket game from time to time.

Great facilities but for a child's event very poor...the canteen has only card facilities and food ran out very quickly. Everything very expensive.

Easy to access via Route 12 tram. Lovely stadium to watch South Melbourne Soccer Club play with cheap tickets at the grond to watch the match.

Great open space multi purpose facility that is well maintained and offers great viewing from most points. Plenty of parking available nearby.

Great facilities easy to find and plenty of parking, just beware of other events on around Albert Park that may influence your travel plans.

How dare you not accept cash from children at your kiosk!! It's legal tender!! How many kids do you know that have eftpos cards??

Lake Albert park, Amazing place for family picnics, bike rides along the lake. Love it! Will be joining the sailing club soon :)

Enjoyed the venue, good event. Looked like good facilities were available although not used by this event. Good sports stadium.

I don't like this venue for viewing soccer games as there is a multilane running track in between the seating and the field

On a windy day it's very cold as there is no adequate shelter due to there being gaps for the wind to pass through.

This place is great for dog walking and relaxing with kids but not great for sport and relaxing just for your self.

Adkins Albert Park this is one of Melbourne's smaller and more intimate stadiums. Plenty of nearby parking.

Amazing facility when you get a chance definitely take a look. Amazing athletics track within Albert park

The home of south melbourne.. great stadium and lovely atmosphere, cant beat this for true soccer culture

Easy to access, parking at the door on a reasonable price and... seating area to watch the pole vault!

Love the pool the courts the gym. World class and affordable. Best athletics complex on the planet.

Bitterly cold. No shelter from wind. At least the one kiosk had good coffee, but that was about it

Great facility. Watched the Socceroos train here prior to our upcoming match against Japan.

Came here with my school to compete in Div 1 aths. Great facility with a beauty of a track

Amazing facilities with poor service at canteen, had to wait 15 minutes for a potato cake

Great place for the athletes but terrible for parking and expensive for food and drinks.

Nice stadium to visit, about food purchased over was warm and fries with some oil soaked

The best boutique football stadium in Australia set in the most impressive surroundings

Craft beers on tap, great scenes, great stuff. Won't regret checking it out for a game

Gate near Carpark should have been open for Elderly Grandparents. Everything else OK.

It's an ok event venue, however does not feel bit enough for anything too important

Terrible food options. Half the menu wasn't available (all the healthy options)

Spent whole day and the food at the little Cafe was over priced and no variety

Great field, stands and bathrooms. Facilities were modern and well maintained.

Fabulous Athletics centre, great stands and facilities for supporters as well.

The track needs to be resurfaced. At this point we have a pb and a Lakeside pb

Great facilities, easily venue of the season even though we lost........twice

Quality training grounds. Good for improving your skills with good facilities

Great Melbourne asset. A few food trucks on event days would be winner.

With the exception of the paid parking, this is a fantastic track.

Nice spacious stadium. Good food option near by. Paid parking.

Great stadium in a great location. Not too close to the pitch.

Great venue. Coffee machines broke down, not very Melbourne.

Sneak in and run a lap when they leave the gate open. We do!

Olympic Park was better, but public access is 100% better.

The track is great, but it costs $5 to get in each time.

The stadium is beautiful and the pitch is almost perfect

Amazing new track, lots of fun for the young athletes

Clean and a place full of energy .... Love it! …
