An international hub for sports and cultural experiences, Melbourne offers an annual lineup of festivals and events such as the Melbourne Cup known as the ‘richest two-mile handicap’ thoroughbred horse race, and the Moomba Festival, Australia’s largest free community cultural festival.

The city’s creative heartbeat can also be experienced out in the open and for free. Look up and around to see Melbourne’s streets adorned with bold, brilliant street art in places such as Croft Alley in Chinatown, AC/DC Lane and Hosier Lane.
