In 2025, Melbourne Showgrounds hosted another electrifying chapter in its event legacy — Everything Electric Melbourne, the world’s #1 home energy & electric vehicle show.
Why this matters: for Melbourne Showgrounds, and for visitors
Melbourne Showgrounds is much more than a backdrop — it’s the ecosystem in which huge, immersive experiences come to life.
With decades of hosting major community, agricultural and technology-led events, the precinct’s flexible grounds, pavilions and infrastructure was pushed to full throttle to accommodate Everything Electric’s ambitious program.
Over three days, the Showgrounds transformed into a hub of innovation and discovery:
-
Hundreds of EVs on display, representing the latest models and technologies
-
EV Test Drive Experience – get behind the wheel of cutting-edge electric vehicles on-site
-
Micro-mobility Test Track – try out electric bikes, scooters and more in a safe, curated environment
-
Commercial Vehicle Zone showcasing buses, delivery vans and heavier electrified fleets
-
GIGA Theatre with more than 20 live “expert” sessions over the three days, covering clean energy, electrification and sustainability topics
-
Energy Advice Zone — home energy tech, renewable systems, battery storage, and advice for homeowners looking to decarbonise their properties
