"This celebration will give Neighbours fans a chance to re-visit some of their favourite Ramsay Street moments over the last three and a half decades.
"The audience will be treated to never-before-heard stories from Erinsborough and get a chance to ask their own burning questions to the cast."
The event takes place at Hamer Hall in Melbourne and tickets can be booked at the venue's website. As with the UK dates, meet and greet opportunities are also planned.

Neighbours came to an end in July last year after being axed by UK broadcaster Channel 5. A historic finale episode featured the returns of legendary former cast members like Kylie Minogue, Jason Donovan and Guy Pearce.
Fortunately, it was later announced that Amazon had come to the rescue, commissioning new episodes of Neighbours for its free streaming service, Freevee.
Classic episodes will launch on Freevee later this week, while the new season will debut in the second half of 2023.
Neighbours returns in the second half of 2023 with new episodes streaming free on Amazon Freevee in the UK and US. Network 10 will retain first-run rights in Australia for the new series.
