Port Phillip Ferries is excited to offer Melbourne based footy fans a free one-way trip from Docklands direct to Geelong. The Cats take on Port Adelaide in round 10 and the Adelaide Crows in Round 11. So whether you’re a Cats fan or support one of the Adelaide teams, this is a great opportunity to experience the Game Day Footy Ferry for Free*!
We want to showcase how easy it is to take the ferry from Melbourne to Geelong, so we’re excited to offer everyone who has a same day footy ticket on either of these days, a FREE* one-way ferry trip to Geelong on the 11.00 am service out of Docklands. When you arrive in Geelong it’s a short walk up to GMHBA Stadium, or alternatively, there are regular buses from Moorabool Street to the ground.
If you choose to return to Melbourne on the ferry there’s a 5.30 pm departure out of Geelong, and with a licensed bar onboard you can sit back and enjoy a cold beer or wine as you cruise home. However please be aware the ferry must leave on time so please plan your journey times.
