Celebrate all that makes our city great, this Multicultural Week at Fed Square.

As we reinvigorate our city again, it’s a wonderful time to be reminded of the melting pot of cultures, cuisines, histories and people that make our great city.

At Fed Square, we are delighted to bring you a special program of online and in-person events to celebrate.

Featuring art, virtual Diwali – and with some incredible First Nations fashion events to look forward to for Melbourne Fashion Week coming up – check out the program below.
