Getting There

To celebrate the release of the UK superstar Robbie William’s new biopic Better Man, Williams will make a special appearance at Fed Square.

This special event will be a great opportunity for fans to celebrate with Williams, in Melbourne, where the biopic was filmed.

Williams will share insights about the film and perform some of his biggest hits featured in the movie.

In a special gesture to honour Robbie’s contribution to the city, he will be presented with the Keys to the City by Lord Mayor Nick Reece.

Better Man is based on the true story of the meteoric rise, dramatic fall, and remarkable resurgence of British pop superstar Robbie Williams, one of the greatest entertainers of all time.

Better Man is directed by Michael Gracey (The Greatest Showman) and stars Robbie Williams, Jonno Davies, Steve Pemberton, Damon Herriman, Raechelle Banno, Alison Steadman and Kate Mulvany.
