Save $50 on Your First Ride with Cars On Demand.

Quick answer: Cars on Demand is one of the only chauffeur companies in Australia where you can get an instant quote online, book in seconds and receive instant confirmation, even as late as an hour before your trip, then track the car in our app and message your actual driver. For Nickelback at Mount Duneed Estate, Geelong, on Saturday 9 October 2027, that means a fixed-price private car from Melbourne, Melbourne Airport, Avalon, Geelong or the Surf Coast straight to the gates, and a chauffeur waiting to take you home when the encore finishes.
Nickelback's Everything Under The Sun Tour comes to Victoria with one arena night in Melbourne and one big outdoor show in the vineyard at Mount Duneed Estate, with Don Broco as special guests. The Geelong show is already listed as sold out on the venue's website, so thousands of fans will be heading to the same country road in Waurn Ponds on the same afternoon. This guide covers how to get there, how to get home, and how fans flying into Melbourne can do the whole trip without ever needing a hire car.
Key takeaways
- Nickelback plays Mount Duneed Estate, 65 Pettavel Road, Waurn Ponds VIC 3216 on Saturday 9 October 2027. Gates open at 3:00pm.
- The venue describes itself as just over an hour from Melbourne, so a Melbourne pickup around 1:00pm to 1:30pm is a sensible plan.
- There is no train to the gate. The nearest V/Line station is Waurn Ponds, and you still need a car for the last leg.
- Flying in? We can collect you at Melbourne Airport, take you to your Melbourne hotel, drive you to Geelong for the show and bring you back.
- Every booking is a fixed price confirmed at booking. Book early to lock in your rate before event-night pricing applies.

How Do You Get to Mount Duneed Estate for Nickelback?
You have four realistic options: drive yourself, take V/Line and a local car, use a taxi or rideshare, or pre-book a chauffeur. For a sold-out winery show on a Saturday night, the real test is not the trip there. It is getting home once thousands of people leave the estate at the same time.
| Option | Getting there | Getting home | Price | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Drive yourself | Saturday traffic on the West Gate and Princes Freeway, then the queue into the estate | Slow exit from the car park, then a late drive back to Melbourne. Someone has to stay sober | Fuel, tolls and parking where it applies | Locals happy to be the designated driver |
| V/Line plus a local car | Geelong line to Waurn Ponds, then a taxi or rideshare to the gate | Two connections late at night, timed around a train you might miss | Lowest per person | Solo fans travelling light |
| Rideshare / Taxi | Usually fine on the way in | Limited cars in a regional area when the whole crowd leaves at once. Prices can change with demand | Variable | Short trips from Geelong or Torquay |
| Limo / Chauffeur Service (Cars on Demand)RECOMMENDED | Door to door from your home, hotel or the airport | Your chauffeur is already booked, messages you the pickup point and drives you straight home | Fixed price confirmed at booking. Book early to lock in your rate | Couples, groups of mates, interstate fans and corporate guests |
Driving to Mount Duneed Estate
Driving works if someone in the group is happy to skip the bar. The venue's Concert and Dining package includes parking, so check the event page for current parking details before you go. Plan for a slow exit at the end of the night, and a dark drive back up the freeway to Melbourne.
Is there public transport to Mount Duneed Estate?
Not to the door. V/Line's Geelong line runs to Waurn Ponds station, but the estate is still a car ride away, and late-night connections after a show are the weak point. If you are relying on the train, check the V/Line timetable for your return service before you buy anything else.
Taxis and rideshare after the show
Getting a car into Mount Duneed Estate before the show is usually easy. Getting one out afterwards is harder. Geelong and the Surf Coast have far fewer drivers than Melbourne, and every one of them is in demand at the same time.

Flying In for Nickelback? Melbourne Airport to Your Hotel, Geelong and Back
Lots of fans will fly into Victoria for this show. The simplest plan is to stay in Melbourne, see the city, and let one chauffeur company handle every leg. With Cars on Demand you can book the whole trip in one app:
- Melbourne Airport to your hotel. We track your flight and your chauffeur meets you inside the terminal. See exactly where your driver waits at every Melbourne Airport terminal.
- Your Melbourne hotel to Mount Duneed Estate. Pickup around 1:00pm to 1:30pm for the 3:00pm gates, straight to the venue in Geelong.
- Mount Duneed Estate back to your hotel. Your chauffeur messages you the agreed pickup point and drives you back to Melbourne after the show.
- Hotel back to Melbourne Airport. Book your flight home transfer at the same time, so the whole weekend is sorted.
Every airport pickup includes free waiting time: 30 minutes for domestic flights and 60 minutes for international flights. Our flight tracking technology, built on RideMinder and powered by Cirium aviation data, times your chauffeur to when you actually land. For more on the airport leg, see our Melbourne airport transfers.
Landing on concert day?
If your flight lands on Saturday 9 October, you can go straight from Melbourne Airport to Mount Duneed Estate and keep your luggage safely in the car, or drop it at a Geelong hotel on the way. Allow plenty of time: the airport sits on the opposite side of Melbourne from Geelong, so leave the terminal by around midday for the 3:00pm gates.
Flying into Avalon instead?
Avalon Airport sits between Melbourne and Geelong, so it is the closest airport to the venue. Read our guide to Avalon Airport to Geelong transfers, then book Avalon to your accommodation and on to the show.
Recommended Pickup Times for Nickelback in Geelong
These times are a guide based on the 3:00pm gate opening. Saturday afternoon traffic on the West Gate Freeway and Princes Freeway can be heavy, so build in a buffer.
| Pickup from | Suggested pickup time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Melbourne Airport (Tullamarine) | By around 12:00pm | Allow for bags, the city crossing and Saturday traffic |
| Melbourne CBD, Southbank and Docklands hotels | 1:00pm to 1:30pm | The venue says just over an hour, plus a buffer |
| Werribee, Point Cook and Lara | 1:45pm to 2:00pm | Already on the Geelong side of the freeway |
| Avalon Airport | By around 1:45pm | The closest airport to Mount Duneed Estate |
| Geelong, Bellarine Peninsula, Torquay and the Surf Coast | 2:15pm to 2:30pm | Short run, but local roads fill up near the gates |
| Concert and Dining package guests | Arrive by 3:00pm | The package runs from 3:00pm to 6:00pm |
Tip: book your trip to the show and your ride home together. Your chauffeur is then already in the area before the encore, instead of driving down from Melbourne once the show ends.
