Don’t miss your ‘Chance’ to immortalise your favourite landmarks and locations in the new game that’s got the whole Peninsula talking: Frankston Monopoly.
Between now and October 15, you can suggest places you’d like to see featured on the new board, which is expected to be on the shelves by next May. Businesses are also being approached regarding sponsorship packages in return for being placed on the board.
Winning Moves Australia, the manufacturer and distributor of Hasbro Monopoly boards, announced a Frankston edition of the massively popular game after launching Melbourne, Geelong and Bendigo versions, with our city being chosen based on population size, visitor numbers, cultural significance, and its strong sense of community.
Daniel Fuentes, from Winning Moves, said: “We are beyond thrilled to be celebrating Frankston with its own custom board. With a history dating back to the mid-19th century, we’re excited to incorporate the area’s unique heritage into the game’s design, offering players a taste of its past while also honouring all of the modern elements of the town. We’re excited to hear from you on what you think should be on the board.”
The edition will see Frankston-themed squares replace such iconic landmarks as Mayfair and Park Lane from the original London version, and it will include a customised Community Chest and Chance playing cards.

Monopoly was launched in 1935 and has since been played by more than a billion people in 114 countries with versions in almost 50 languages.
