Useful tips
- The route works well if you combine it with Southbank and a walk along the Yarra River.
- It is a reliable indoor plan for a rainy day.
- When planning around the exhibition list, it is easy to mix up NGV International and NGV Australia. According to the official guide, NGV International is at 180 St Kilda Road, so check the building for your target exhibition first.
- Special exhibitions may have a separate fee, so do not head out expecting only free permanent displays. Check the exhibition page for your visit date to see whether booking is required.
