What To Do In Melbourne During The Winter
If you have visited Melbourne or you are a local resident, then you will know that Melbourne endures warm summers, fantastic springs, mild autumns and crisp winters. After the Autumn period between March to May, Melbourne starts to chill out a little bit during the Winter season.
Between June and August the average daily temperature is between 7 and 17 degree celsius with an average monthly rainfall of around 49 mm.
When the weather gets colder in Melbourne the city starts to come alive with food festivals, shows, theatre, markets and much more.

These are both well worth a visit if you enjoy either snowboarding or skiing.
Night Markets
If you head over to the Queen Victoria market, which is located opposite the Nomads Melbourne, this market is a fantastic place to find fresh fruit, vegetables and cheese. There are plenty of hot drinks stalls so be sure to grab yourself a hot chocolate, mulled wine or hot cider and then walk round and explore the area.
The night market is usually bustling with live music , international food stalls, food truck and other stalls and performers. There are also plenty of stalls to grab yourself a souvenir, clothes and some jewelry too.
