Melbourne, your pop prayers have been answered: Lady Gaga is bringing her MAYHEM Ball Tour to Marvel Stadium this December, and it’s about to be the glitter-drenched, chaos-fuelled blowout you’ve been waiting for.

The Mother Monster herself will hit the stage on Friday 5 and Saturday 6 December 2025, turning Docklands into a full-blown pop temple for two massive nights of sequins, choreography, and unfiltered emotion. Whether you’ve been belting “Born This Way” since high school or you just discovered “Bloody Mary” thanks to Wednesday on Netflix, one thing’s for sure: Gaga’s Melbourne takeover is about to be pure chaos, couture, and catharsis.

When And Where It’s All Going Down

The action kicks off at Marvel Stadium, Docklands (a.k.a. Melbourne’s go-to for supersized gigs). Doors are expected to open from around 6pm, with Gaga taking over the stage at approximately 7.30pm.

This marks Gaga’s first return to Melbourne since The Chromatica Ball, and she’s reportedly pulling out all the stops for MAYHEM. Think bigger visuals, bolder choreography, and enough costume changes to make the Met Gala look underdressed.

What To Expect From The Setlist

“Bloody Mary”, “Judas”, and “Scheiße” – dark, industrial Gaga energy to start the night off hot
“Poker Face”, “Paparazzi”, and “Alejandro” – that golden-era nostalgia we all secretly crave
“Born This Way”, “Million Reasons”, and “Shallow” – stadium-sized singalongs incoming
And, of course, the one-two punch of “Bad Romance” and new album closer “How Bad Do U Want Me”

Getting To Marvel Stadium

We love a big night out, but we don’t love pre-show stress. Luckily, Marvel Stadium is one of Melbourne’s easiest venues to reach.

Public transport is your MVP.

Train: Jump on any service to Southern Cross Station (it’s literally next door to the stadium). You’ll be surrounded by fellow Little Monsters the second you step off the platform.
Tram: Route 86, 70, or 30 will get you close, depending on where you’re coming from.
Car: Limited parking is available beneath the venue, but spots are tight and exit traffic is no joke. If you’re driving, pre-book through the Marvel Stadium website.

Pro tip: It’s A4-sized bags only so keep your outfit outrageous, but your carry-on minimal.

What Time To Rock Up

Doors swing open around 6pm, and Gaga’s set will likely start around 7.30pm. Plan to arrive early enough to breeze through security, grab a drink, and soak in the energy because once that intro music hits, it’s game over.

Expect around two hours of pure pop theatre, packed with costume changes, pyrotechnics, and more emotional whiplash than your last situationship.

Final Tips For The Ultimate Gaga Night

Go big or go home: Think latex, sequins, feathers (subtlety is not the vibe).
Stay comfy: You’ll be dancing for hours; practical shoes can still sparkle.
Charge up: You will take 300 photos.
Plan your ride home: Southern Cross will be heaving post-show, so have your Myki ready or linger nearby with a drink until the rush calms.
Most importantly: Let loose. It’s Gaga—she didn’t come here to play it safe, and neither should you.
