Went out for groceries tonight and somehow walked into New York 🗽
Bourke Street in Docklands has been completely transformed for the filming of Deadlocked with @iamjamiefoxx 🎬 NYPD cars, police barricades, American mailboxes, newspaper stands, even a Brooklyn address on the trucks. The detail is unreal. Standing there at night, it honestly felt like I’d stepped onto a New York street.
If you’re around the area, here’s what you need to know 👇
📍 800 Bourke St, Captains Walk & Geographe St, Docklands
🗓️ Filming: 10 to 14 Oct and 17 to 20 Oct, roughly 7am to 7pm
💥 This weekend (Sat 10 & Sun 11 Oct, 8am to 7pm) there’ll be blank ammunition, loud bangs and explosions at 800 Bourke St, so don’t panic!
🚧 Bourke St is closed between Harbour Esplanade and Enterprize Way, so use Collins St to get to Victoria Harbour. Pedestrian access stays open and Bourke St businesses are open as usual.
Melbourneyou never fail to surprise me ✨

Did you know about this? 👀
Melbourne’s iconic observation wheel is FINALLY reopening TOMORROW! 🎡👇🏻
And WOW, seeing Melbourne from 120 METRES ABOVE THE GROUND is something else!
The Melbourne Star at Docklands officially reopens on Thursday 15 October following an incredible $11 MILLION transformation, and this is SO much more than simply switching the wheel back on!
We were lucky enough to experience it ahead of the reopening, and I’m so excited to see this Melbourne icon back in action.
Here’s what’s NEW:
✨ Refurbished, climate-controlled cabins with incredible views across Melbourne and Port Phillip Bay
🌈 A brand new programmable LED lighting system, with colourful displays lighting up the Docklands skyline
🎮 Interactive experiences and mixed reality games planned to help kids discover Melbourne’s landmarks from above
🥂 New Star Class VIP cabins, including premium furnishings and special experiences
🍷 Dining in the sky, picnic packages, drinks and private cabin experiences
🍸 A revamped entrance, plus a new bar, lounge and outdoor viewing area planned as part of the transformation!
For families, the Classic Spin is the one to look at:
🎡 Approximately 30-minute rotation
🎟️ Adults from $29
👧 Kids from $18
👨👩👧👦 Family of 4 from $76
♿ Fully accessible cabins with step-free boarding
I LOVE that this is bringing new life back to Docklands! You can make a whole day of it with the waterfront, restaurants and other attractions nearby.
And after seeing those views for ourselves, I have one recommendation… Go at SUNSET! 🌅😍 Imagine watching the city change from golden afternoon light to twinkling lights below!
📅 Reopening Thursday 15 October from 9am
📍 Melbourne Star, The District Docklands, 101 Waterfront Way, Docklands
🎟️ Tickets are on sale now!
