When the Formula 1 Grand Prix rolls into Melbourne, the city shifts gear — fast. The streets get louder, the nights get longer, and the energy? Absolutely electric.
If you’ve never been in town for race week, here’s the vibe: high-octane days at Albert Park, roaring engines echoing through the city, and a festival atmosphere that spills from the track to the laneways. Whether you’re in it for the motorsport, the music, the fashion, or just the chaos and colour, Melbourne during the Grand Prix is a full-sensory thrill ride.
And where better to soak it all in than at Drifter Melbourne or Little Drifter North Melbourne?
Stay close to the action, with two beautifully designed stays that put you near the track — and even closer to the party. Think rooftop hangouts, pop-up events, late-night chats in shared lounges, and a like-minded crew of travellers all here for the same reason: the ride.
Whether you’re a hardcore F1 fan or just drifting in for the vibe, the Grand Prix is one of those weekends that defines Melbourne
