This week's Melbourne events, exhibitions, sports and community guide for Tuesday September 29 to Monday October 5, 2009.

This week.. It's literally on for young and old with a grand swag of festivals for the kids with the Moon Lantern and Trung-Thu festivals offering an Asian flair to the end of School Holidays, while for the older kids there's the Victorian Seniors Festival, showcasing everything from theatre and music to film screenings.

Those in between can enjoy one of the music festivals on offer, including the Spring Music Festival, Parklife, and the Mad Hatter's Music Festival, a free event at Federation Square to kick off Mental Health Week.

Foodies get a look in also with several food festivals taking place, so if your local lager lads have a rosy glow to their lederhosen that's not just the weather or the result of a poorly-placed bee sting... it's the welcome return of Oktoberfest, which was strangely quiet last year with not an oompah to be heard.
