From November 2, people living in almost all of regional Victoria will be able to travel freely to the NT. And Melbournians may be able to visit this Christmas, without the need to quarantine.

Chief Minister Michael Gunner says the Northern Territory is "on track" to open its borders to Melburnians before Christmas, but has warned people not to get their hopes up too high — with a few more hurdles to jump before any decision is made.

"We will then have to do a 'watch and wait' of how things will then go as Melbourne and Victoria mingle, and this stage, right now, with all the evidence, that should be fine," Mr Gunner said.
