Tuesday 22nd July to Monday 28th July 2014

In what has to be one of the busiest weekends of the year, let alone winter, there is a stack of events on with something for everyone.

One of our annual favourites is back... Open House Melbourne when places we never get to see are open, like the tunnel between the Eye & Ear Hospital and Royal Melbourne Hospital.

Have a good snoop Melbourne!
