Birrarung Marr

Immerse yourself in Melbourne's Aboriginal heritage at Birrarung Marr, the city's newest parkland.

Situated between Federation Square and the sports precinct of Rod Laver Arena and the MCG, the riverside park completes an almost continuous green belt around the city.

Wide open spaces and large sculptured terraces have been designed to host some of Melbourne's best events and festivals and they are also popular spots for a picnic.

The park is home to the children's creative workshop Artplay, as well as some excellent permanent art installations. Proximities is a sound installation which lends a unique dimension to the William Barak Bridge.
