You cannot miss out on this iconic event in Melbourne! Celebrate the Victorian Labour Day long weekend in style and add a little bit of colour. Or a lot!

The parade is the main event of the festival and judging from the previous years line up, you need to add this to your list of things to do and see this weekend!

The other thing to look out for is the Birdman rally! People try to run off the edge of a man made cliff to see how far their imaginative contraptions can fly in an effort to raise money for charity.

Want to know why we have an 8 hour working day? Then make sure you add the I’m Free tours on your list of places to check out. It’s a pay your own system, and I would highly recommend that you paid a minimum of $5. Trust me, the walkers are good.

What else would you do this long weekend? Is there anything you’d recommend? Leave me a comment below.
