Whats On Free Things In Melbourne

Some say that the best things in life are free. One of the wonderful things abut Melbourne is its diverse culture and one of the best things about this is that many of the events are actually free. Here is a list of 10 of those free attractions. From time to time, I will update you with more wonderful things to see and do. The list includes, the iconic Queen Victoria Market which has a night market on Wednesday nights. Try to get there early as it is very very popular with locals and tourists. You will immediately notice the number of barbeque stalls and the aromas of onions, sizzling lamb, grilled tomatoes etc ….. getting hungry yet?
Also included is the National Gallery Of Victoria, known as the NGV. Melbourne is known as Australia’s cultural capital. Just below the heart of the city is St Kilda Road, which is our cultural centre. One of the impressive buildings here houses the NGV. It is immediately recognisable by the water veneer running down the front windows. Go on, you know you want to touch it to see if its realy. YES, it is. Inside are wonderful exhibitions from world famous artists. And, these exhibitions are constantly changing, so you can go back every month or so and discover new and exciting art on display. Melbourne is also home to the International Comedy festival, where you can get to see up to 1000 different plays, performances, acts. All designed to give you a good belly laugh. This link includes events to make you laugh that are also free. Well that has to be something in itself that will make you smile! Also included are 8 local inner Melbourne pubs hosting trivia nights. Am starting to feel that there just arent enough nights in a week to be able to sample all that Melbourne has to offer. They say that a journey of 1000 miles starts with the first step, so go on start your marvellous Melbourne journey
