| What To Do In Melbourne This Weekend |
Light Up Your Night (Literally!)
First things first, gotta embrace Melbourne's obsession with dazzling light shows. Lightscape is back, baby! We're talking twinkling tunnels, illuminated forests, and enough fairy lights to make a Christmas tree blush. Feeling a bit more on the cultural tip? Gumbuya Dreaming is a brand new experience weaving First Nations storytelling with stunning visuals. Think didgeridoo meets disco ball – it's gonna be epic.
Pro Tip: Rug up, Melbourne nights can get chilly (though nothing a bit of hot cocoa can't fix!).
Tip: Reading with intent makes content stick.
Dive Deep into History (Without Getting Wet)
Craving a history fix? The NGV's Pharaoh exhibition is the real deal. We're talking mummies, hieroglyphics, and enough gold to make a Kardashian jealous. For the fambam, Ancient Egypt for Kids is a fun and interactive way for the little ones to become mini-archaeologists.
Word to the Wise: Bookings are essential for both these blockbuster exhibitions. Don't be a drongo and miss out!
QuickTip: Reading carefully once is better than rushing twice.
Feed Your Soul (and Your Belly)
Let's be honest, exploring Melbourne is hungry work. Free to Feed Winter Feasts are here to tantalize your taste buds with soul-warming dishes from all corners of the globe. Think steaming bowls of pasta, melt-in-your-mouth curries, and enough deliciousness to make your tastebuds do a happy dance. Feeling a bit more fiery? Authentic Flamenco will set the Capitol Theatre stage alight with a passionate dance performance that's guaranteed to get your toes tapping.
On a Budget? Don't worry, Melbourne's got heaps of laneway cafes and hole-in-the-wall gems serving up delicious and affordable eats.
Tip: Read aloud to improve understanding.
