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!
If you haven't checked out Lightscape at the Botanic Gardens yet, we reckon this weekend is the perfect chance to do so (hot tip: grab a mulled wine for the stroll). For another fun weekend activity, head to Winter Glow Festival at Adventure Park in Geelong and enjoy ice sculptures, fun rides and even real snow. And fromage fanatics won't want to miss High Cheese at the Westin, where you can gorge on three tiers of dairy-loaded treats.
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.
