Happy New Year, Melbourne skaters! As we roll into January 2026, the city is buzzing with incredible energy, especially for those just starting their skate journey. The holiday season is packed with opportunities to get on eight wheels, with a fantastic series of Family Skate Workshops popping up in Preston, Kyneton, and Bacchus Marsh. These events, part of Skate Victoria’s wonderful 'Come and Try' initiative, are the perfect way to build confidence and have fun.
But it’s not just about new beginnings! For our elite athletes, a massive opportunity has just landed: Skate Australia is officially seeking expressions of interest for the 2025 Inline Freestyle World Championships. This call-to-action shows just how seriously Melbourne takes its skating, nurturing talent from the first shaky strides at a holiday session right up to the world stage. Whether you’re a beginner or a pro, Melbourne’s skate scene has a place for you this month!
