Tuesday 18th February to Monday 24th February 2014

Everything this weekend is white and night... White Night Melbourne returns for its second year with a bigger bag of tricks to help you through the night. Trains, trams and buses will run all night.

Melbourne Weather forecast for the weekend is looking fabulous.. 18-25C, so get out there and enjoy summer while it lasts.

Looking for things to do this weekend that don't involve keeping the kids up all night.. cycle out to Heide, how about A Day On The Oval for Peter Mac, Frankston Toy Library hold its 25th annual Teddy Bears' Picnic on Sunday. How about a trip to the circus?

Have a white week Melbourne.
