Melbourne Town Hall
The Melbourne Town Hall on Swanston Street is a magnificent heritage building and historical treasure in the heart of the city.
Prior to the building of a town hall, the Mechanics’ Institute in Collins Street (now the Athenaeum) was rented as temporary quarters where the Council carried out its business and affairs.
More information (including venue map, disabled entrances and assistive listening devices) is available at the Melbourne Town Hall website.
Getting here
To access Melbourne Town Hall by public transport, catch any tram which runs along Swanston Street; alternatively, it’s a two-block walk from Flinders Street railway station.
The nearest public carpark is located at City Square, beneath City Square and the Westin Hotel on the opposite side of Collins Street.
