Federation Square

Touted as "Melbourne’s civic and cultural hub for the 21st century," Federation Square is a conglomerate of attractions centered on wacky architecture and a large open piazza-type area cobbled with misshapen paving.
Here you’ll find the National Gallery of Victoria: The Ian Potter Centre-Australian Art, the Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI), and a one-stop Visitor Centre.
The huge three-level National Gallery of Victoria building contains the largest collection of Australian art in the country, including many works by Sidney Nolan, Russell Drysdale, and Tom Roberts, as well as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. The Gallery is a major focus for art festivals and special events.
Numerous cafes and coffee shops operate throughout the precinct.
The ACMI centre includes two state-of-the-art cinemas and large areas where visitors can view movies, videos, and digital media. It’s worth visiting the square just to see the extraordinary architecture, made up of strangely reflective geometrical designs, and the impressive glassed Atrium. Lots of events happen in the square’s 450-seat amphitheatre, including theatrical performances and free concerts. Other events take place on the plaza and along the banks of the Yarra River.

Address: Flinders St. to the Yarra River (running north-south to the left, facing Flinders St. Railway Station)
