Top 10 Melbourne Culture On this week 08/07/2018
Robots; goatmen; leaky comedians; sweet transvestites. Strap yourselves in, Melbourne. This’ll be a good ‘un.
10) Boutique Winter Marketplace
9th-19th July
A milquetoast delight for the whole family. Cosy throws, locally designed jewellery, ceramics, home-wares, artwork, hand made clothing…and it’s really easy to lose your family in the crowd.

5) The Leak with Pat McCaffrie LIVE
13th July
Comedian, podcaster and general ragamuffin will be gliding his sharp tongue all over the election, Non-Linear Warfare, how to take a candidate seriously, Louis Thereoux’s My Scientology Movie and how to deal with fake news and trolls. And you’ve got a front row seat. First few rows beware. He’s a moist one.
