see its famous spots. But these are not there all is to it. A city like Melbourne offers a
host of fun activities at night, as well. Be it watching a game of footy or catching the

Lights Under the Clocks
The Flinders Street Station is one of the most iconic cultural spots in the city. With its
French Renaissance architecture, it easily stands out from the rest of the buildings in the
block. On special events and celebrations, visitors and locals can watch spectacular light
shows there. Colourfully coordinated lights are projected onto the station’s façade,
transforming it and giving the viewers a show to remember.

3. Passion for Sports
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, about 7.6 million or 43% of the entire
population (aged 15 and above) has attended at least one sporting event a year. The
numbers are even higher for 15 to 17-year-olds (58%). Even the elderly do not miss
attendance.
Sports is the religion of many Melburnians. Many even consider the city as the sporting
capital of the world. In fact, it is almost impossible not to have a game night in any
given week. Be it Australian rules, rugby or the Australian Open, one can book a ticket
and experience first-hand the locals’ passion for sports.
