Words by Oliver Winn and Staff Writers We've broken down this list of the best Melbourne festivals month by month, so you can check back here regularly (or save it in your bookmarks, if anyone does that) to see which festivals are happening and find out what's worth going to. Note, many of these Melbourne festivals change their dates year-on-year, sometimes by months at a time. For the latest information, every festival title in this article is linked to the latest news about that particular festival.
We also produce a specific monthly guide online and in our free print magazine, but consider this the most comprehensive festival calendar for the entire year. This list features the entire scope of Victorian and Melbourne festivals: food festivals, arts festivals, film festivals, fashion festivals, comedy festivals and of course, music festivals; from monoliths like Laneway to tiny bush doofs like Tanglewood and everything in between. Enjoy.
