Melbourne is gearing up for a major economic boost, as a string of three major events is expected to inject approximately A$110 million into the city's economy over a short period, according to merchant data from National Australia Bank (NAB).
The "event trifecta" includes the opening concert of British rock band Oasis at Marvel Stadium on Oct. 31, the four-day Melbourne Cup Carnival in early November and the city's only Australian show by heavy-metal legends Metallica on Nov. 8.
