About our Melbourne news

Latest news on Melbourne, Australia's cultural capital and second-largest city, covering urban development, arts, property market, transport infrastructure and life in Victoria's vibrant metropolis.

Melbourne, home to over 5.2 million people, stands as Australia's fastest-growing city and is projected to become the nation's largest metropolis by 2030. The city consistently ranks among the world's most liveable cities and serves as a major financial centre, ranked 28th globally in the 2024 Global Financial Centres Index.

The city is currently undergoing significant transformation through major infrastructure projects, including the Metro Tunnel, West Gate Tunnel, and the ambitious Suburban Rail Loop. The property market remains dynamic, with substantial development in both the CBD, where new skyscrapers continue to reshape the skyline, and in rapidly growing outer suburbs. The upcoming Southbank By Beulah tower is set to become Australia's tallest building by 2025.

Melbourne's cultural scene thrives with its renowned arts festivals, music venues, and sporting events. The city hosts major international tournaments like the Australian Open and Formula One Australian Grand Prix, while maintaining its status as the live music capital of the world with over 553 venues. The vibrant laneway culture, with its street art and café scene, continues to attract visitors and define the city's character.

Founded in 1835, Melbourne played a crucial role in Australia's development, serving as the nation's interim capital from 1901 to 1927. The city's growth was notably shaped by the 1850s gold rush and the 1880s land boom, which established much of its distinctive Victorian-era architecture, including the World Heritage-listed Royal Exhibition Building.

Whether you're interested in urban development, cultural events, sports, or business news, our Melbourne feed provides comprehensive coverage from trusted sources. Stay informed about the latest developments in Australia's fastest-growing metropolis as it continues its transformation into one of the world's leading cities.
