Victorian International Student Sport Festival (VISSF)

After an incredible event in 2025, VISSF will return in 2026 on Saturday 4 April. The event will once again be held at the amazing Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre in Albert Park.

In 2025, VISSF was held on Saturday 19 April, with 470 international students from 26 different nationalities and representing 12 of UniSport’s member institutes in attendance.

UniSport partnered with the Perfect Ballers Association to provide a fantastic free event for students, with free food.

The second edition of the event again featured 3×3 Basketball and Social Badminton and added Table Tennis to the sport program.

221 students participated in social badminton, 30 students enjoyed table tennis and 219 students took part in the 3×3 basketball competition, across 45 male and 5 female teams.

The event offered a fantastic day of sport and an opportunity to celebrate and showcase the diversity of all international students, to promote inclusion and acceptance, foster a sense of belonging, help bridge cultural barriers and enhance intercultural understanding.
