Time Out says

Fifty thousand admirers turned up to the reopening of Arts Centre Melbourne's Hamer Hall, such is the esteemed place it holds in Melburnians' hearts.

The two-year redevelopment saw $135.8 million be poured into the curvaceous structure that sits on the Yarra, diagonally across from Federation Square. The refurbishment include a revitalised auditorium with improved acoustics, air con, lighting, technology and seating. The building is now a true gem in Melbourne's theatrical crown.

Take a swing at Albert Park Mini Golf’s Jurassic Par  It’s a slice of bliss to witness dinosaurs roaming free in their natural habitat: the sunny grounds of Albert Park’s family-friendly mini golf course. Long-necked herbivores smile overhead, two raptors flank the final holes and one poor sucker’s disembodied jaws poke up through the centre of a cubbyhouse (a fave, obviously). Embark on Melbourne Museum's Dinosaur Walk  Melbourne Museum’s dinosaur walk is home to the skeletons of 17 ancient creatures – perhaps one of the most...
