Cleowag Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Hi, we live in Perth but are having an extended holiday in January to a few places. We will be in Melbourne on Australia Day. Does anyone have any suggestions of where the best place is to be on the day? We have an 8 year old but he’s not overly bothered by the standard kids activities. We haven’t booked accommodation yet so would appreciate any tips on where to stay or avoid! Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobths Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 The fireworks in the city are always good, best place to watch them (unless they move them) is the banks of the Yarra, near Riverland bar or on the opposite bank near the boatsheds. We’ll be staying in our suburb, Altona, as they have fireworks on the beach, heaps of kids activities (we have a 3 & 5 year old) and food trucks etc. Maybe have a day at the Royal Botanic Gardens and then watch the fireworks?

Cleowag Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 Thanks, that sounds great. They have a similar thing in Perth with the fireworks but it helps to be in the know to know the best vantage point to see them from! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
