Top Rated Concerts and Shows in Melbourne

"A lot more than you might think, as this 1980s building extends five floors underground and includes three theatres. Take a peek inside Hamer Hall on the virtual tour, or watch a clip about the iconic performing arts collection. The collection includes over 500 pieces of Australia’s performing arts history, including Kylie’s famous hot pants!"

"Spend the day hopping between eclectic cafes and small shops, and explore iconic places such as the State Parliament buildings, Shrine of Remembrance, Federation Square, Arts Centre, Yarra River, Fitzroy Garden and St Patrick’s Cathedral. Take advantage of the free tram service around the City Circle loop to get around!"

"This is one of those spots which only really works when there is some cloud in the sky to light up. With the sunsetting to the far left, when conditions are right the colours in the sky over Flinders Street Station, St Paul’s Cathedral and high rises beyond can be spectacular."

"This Fitzroy institution specialises in organic (and often raw) ingredients, which are used to create dishes that span the world’s cuisines and cater to all manner of diets and intolerances. Popular raw items include raw nachos, a raw nutty burger, and their innovative ‘Rawsagne’. Remember to save room for desserts which includes pecan pie, carrot cake, and cheesecake."

With locations peppered throughout Melbourne, there's sure to be one close by. From sushi boxes to maki rolls, nigiri and inari, this sushi joint offers all of the kids' (and your!) favourites."

"There’s a good chance you’ll find a queue when you stop by Lune Croissanterie’s Collins Street shop in the CBD, but the treats here are definitely worth the wait. These expertly made croissants have been the talk of the town since Lune first popped up in Elwood, and then Fitzroy, years ago — and with good reason. It’s hard to go past a classic, especially when it’s made to this standard."

"Where: Fitzroy (There's also a CBD "express" offshoot in Russell Street.). Why: Blending bedrock Aussie flavours and French fabulousness with typical Lune flair, croissant pastry is slathered with black gold and cheesy bechamel, rolled into a scroll then topped with gruyere. It's a deluxe spin ($8) on a lunchbox staple."

"Restaurants Patisseries Fitzroy. Their pastries fly out of the shop by noon most days, but does Lune really cut the mustard?"
