Southbank hosts a vibrant cultural precinct, including the Southbank Promenade, the Ophelia sculpture, the weekly art and craft market, and proximity to the Melbourne Arts Precinct with venues like the Victorian Arts Centre and the Southbank Theatre

The suburb is serviced by the West Gate Freeway along its southern edge and major arterial roads such as Kingsway, Clarendon Street and Queensbridge. These routes provide direct links to the Melbourne CBD and other parts of the city
