Is there anything happening in the city tomorrow? They've declared southern cross and half the cbd to be designated areas, ie they can search anybody and anything in there for any reason, including no reason

The exact boundaries are listed in the latest gov gazette here: https://www.gazette.vic.gov.au/gazette/Gazettes2024/GG2024S154.pdf

As well as info about designated areas here: https://www.police.vic.gov.au/weapons-search-areas

I would normally link to a your rights when dealing with police page, but because it's a designated area you pretty much have none
