Melbourne comes alive on the weekend, so be sure to leave some room in your schedule to get out and experience the best of it! To help you make the most of your Friday, Saturday and Sunday, we've gathered all the hottest events, shows, gigs, exhibitions, openings and pop-up activations in one easy spot – you're welcome!
Do you love a good stickybeak into places normally hidden from the public eye? Then you won't want to miss Open House Melbourne – this annual weekend is an opportunity to check out almost 200 rarely snooped inside establishments. There are still lots of glowing and illuminated events to check out, including Winter Glow Festival at Adventure Park in Geelong and Winter Wonderlights at Sovereign Hill (which finishes up on the 27th!). And don't miss seeing the all-commanding presence of Sigrid Thornton in Mother Play.
When in doubt, you can always rely on our catch-all lists of Melbourne's best bars, restaurants, museums, parks and galleries, or consult our bucket list of 100 things to do in Melbourne before you die.
