Description

Stroll the City invites you to wind your way through Melbourne’s city streets, laneways, buildings and parklands with cultural leaders and industry experts as they uncover its hidden gems and share insights into our ever-evolving built environment.

What's On

Using this self-guided audio tour, Kylie from the Metro Tunnel Project and an ensemble of special guests, you’ll journey through Anzac Station to learn about the station design, while exploring amazing artworks and hidden details of one of Melbourne’s future architectural icons.

This self-guided audio tour begins at the Albert Rd entrance, where you can view the station exterior from street level. Heading down into the station, you’ll travel through the concourse, see a major artwork, and pause underneath the station’s massive timber canopy. You’ll pass through the ticket gates and descend to platform level, to check out the station’s Victorian-first technology and design and hear more about another feature artwork. Returning to the concourse, you’ll head out through the ticket gates, stopping at the station’s Domain Rd exit to see a final artwork, before heading back up to St Kilda Road.
