An Introduction to the Life in Melbourne

Things To Eat, See, And Do In Melbourne In 2018

Eat gelato at Messina

The hype is all true – this really is some of the best gelato in Australia. Even if you've already been there, the gelateria produces five wackily-named weekly specials in addition to its 35 regular flavours. With outposts in Fitzroy, Richmond, and Windsor, make it your business to visit at least one in 2018.

Have a picnic at Montsalvat

Montsalvat is Australia's oldest not-for-profit artists' colony. It's home to over a dozen medieval-styled buildings and endless gardens filled with roaming peacocks. Picnickers are welcome, and it's only 35 minutes northeast of Melbourne, in Eltham.

Indulge at South Melbourne Night Market

South Melbourne Night Market is turning 10 in 2018 and everyone is invited to the party. Until February 22, the market will transform into a pop-up playground of street food, food trucks, shopping, and live music once the sun goes down.

Ogle the street art at Hosier Lane

Been there before? That doesn't matter – it changes all the time! It's easy to take Melbourne's street art scene for granted, but a wander down Hosier Lane is always worth the effort. Bonus points if you spot a couple taking their wedding photos... it shouldn't be hard!
