Welcome to this week's Melbourne events, exhibitions, sports and community guide for Tuesday to Monday, October 18 to 24.

This week... there's a great range of events celebrating the Indian Festival of Diwali with a fine spread of food, dancing, market stalls and much more. On the European end of cultural shindigs, there's also the Swiss Italian Festa, one of the biggest events in Daylesford with an extensive program of attractions.

There's also much to kick up your heels about with music events that include the very swingin' Camperdown Cruise Rockabilly Festival, Surrey Hills Music Festival, and a day of Cuban Jazz at Coldstream's Rochford Winery.

And with the pollen in full gear, one of the key signs that Spring is truly here (aside from annoying flies) is the return of Whitehorse Spring Festival and the abundance of fetes taking place, for those feeling lucky and keen for a dip.
