First Up: All competitors need to be at the venue by 11am, or no later than 11.30am. Please be on time as the event has a rather tight schedule..
Also, competitors get in for free.. SecondlyFor all the interstaters, such as myself, here's a map, so you can find North Melbourne Town Hall.
View Larger Map
Basically the best option from Southern Cross station, direct (with minimal walking) to the venue is the bus.. You can catch the 216 or 219 bus from the bus stop on Lonsdale / Spencer street.
You could also catch the train to North Melbourne and walk or a number of connecting trams..
But as I said the bus is the best option.. Make sure you check the Metlink website for up to date timetable information.. LAST THING: Fresh from Japan:
I'll be selling Super Fat Shoe Laces and brand spanking new spinbeanies at the jam.. Prices for Super Laces are $15 and Spin Beanies are $45.. Just hit me up on the day..
Peace..
