About Eureka Tower

Named after The Eureka Stockade, the 1854 rebellion of prospectors in the Victorian goldfields, the Eureka Tower stands 91 stories above the ground in the heart of Southbank. The skyscraper's gold crown and gold-plated windows add to the theme and literally sparkle when the sun catches the top of the building. Skydeck located on the 88th floor affords the highest public view in the Southern Hemisphere. One of the unique experiences is The Edge, a glass cube that slides out three meters from the building for vertigo-free visitors. Get a panoramic view of Melbourne City from around 300 meters above sea level. There are almost 30 viewfinders on the Skydeck through which you can spot some of the major landmarks of Melbourne from the towering heights of the Eureka. This is the only place in the world where you will find “The Edge” – a glass cube located at the 88th floor of the tower, providing incredible views to tourists who are suspended from here.
