PLANNING YOUR VISIT

Preston Lions Football Club is located at B.T. Connor Reserve, 200 Broadhurst Avenue, Reservoir, about 16 kilometres north of the Melbourne CBD.

​

It isn't easy to get to via public transport - sorry! - but there is plenty of parking.

​

Because it's a football ground, there isn't a lot else around, but the club does have great food, there will be barista coffee, morning and afternoon tea are included both days, as well as one complimentary drink and canapés on Saturday evening. If you don't want lunch with a Macedonian flavour, we suggest you bring your own. There is also an on-site licensed bar. 

​

Rooms have been held at Quest Preston for those travelling from intra- or interstate. If you would like one, please email us at info@footballwritersfestival.com.au. Quest Preston is approximately 6 kilometres from Preston Lions FC.

 

Other relatively nearby hotels include Ibis Fawkner, Hume Villa Motor Inn, Fawkner Executive Suites, Best Western Mahoney Motor Inn, and the Novotel Preston.
