Discover what’s happening right now

There’s always something on in Melbourne, Australia’s sporting and events capital. From major international sporting events to outdoor concerts, art exhibitions and weekend markets, the city rarely stands still. As a result, visitors can plan a trip around a headline event or simply arrive and discover something unexpected.

Timeout Fed Square sits right in the centre of the action. We’re located next to Flinders Street Station, which means you can step off a train and be immersed in Melbourne’s event precinct within minutes. In addition, we are only a short walk to the Yarra River, the MCG, the Arts Centre and both major NGV galleries. Because of this central position, Fed Square is often the starting point for a full day or night in the city.

Events, culture and city energy

Fed Square regularly hosts live music, cultural festivals, public screenings and community events, while also connecting directly to Southbank, Birrarung Marr and Melbourne’s laneways. Therefore, whether you are visiting for a gallery exhibition, a riverside market or a major city celebration, everything sits within easy reach, and the energy of the wider CBD flows naturally through the Square.

Walk to the MCG and Melbourne Park

Fed Square is within walking distance of the Melbourne Cricket Ground and Melbourne Park, which means AFL matches, international cricket and the Australian Open are only minutes away. Because pedestrian paths and public transport link the precinct seamlessly, you can move between sport, river and city with ease before returning to the heart of Melbourne.
