About Melbourne
Melbourne is the capital of the state of Victoria and a major Australian business and cultural centre. It is known for its laneways and coffee culture, its arts scene and its sporting calendar, which includes the Australian Open tennis, the Melbourne Cup and Australian Rules football at the MCG.
Victoria uses Australian Eastern Standard Time, UTC+10, and switches to Australian Eastern Daylight Time, UTC+11, during the southern-hemisphere summer. Melbourne keeps the same time as Sydney and Canberra. Queensland does not change its clocks, so during the Australian summer Melbourne is one hour ahead of Brisbane, while in winter they match.
