Since 2008, the Open House Melbourne Weekend has quickly grown to become one of Melbourne’s most widely attended cultural events. This year, we are opening more doors than ever before across Metropolitan Melbourne, with a big focus on the West.
"Open House Melbourne is an independent organisation that fosters public appreciation for architecture and public engagement in conversations about the future of our cities."
Over the weekend of 29 & 30 July there are a lot of buildings open to the public and tours which are conducted. Most of the ticketed events are sold out, but there are many open places which don't require tickets.
If you aren't able to reserve a spot to some of the interesting/popular ones, you might end up just going to a bunch of architects studios to look at their little models and promo videos…which is underwhelming and has happened to me before.
Yeah, I really wish I'd seen it earlier, the tickets went on sale a couple of days ago and sell out almost straight away - it's not quite as hard to get as Taylor Swift tickets, but definitely getting close! I've put my name on the list for emails of future events (I think, the website is pretty dodgy) so hopefully will see it earlier next year.
