Federation Square

Good: location, proximity; free wifi ; big TVs (for key events , NYE, fireworks , White Night, etc.); many events here & ACMI… Ideal CBD meeting place; hard to miss, easy to get to via public transport !

Place you have to visit once you reach Melbourne. It's a mixed-use development in the inner city of Melbourne.#federationsquare #specialbroadcastingservice #weekend #niceweather #tingweiproductions

You can pretty much do anything here what with the facilities made available. Really, just sitting here while sipping on a cup of coffee can really make your day.

Melbourne is a great town ! With many neighborhoods to visit- Fitzroy, St. Kilda, Melbourne CBD, Chinatown... Go for a long walk. Take a tram ride. Checkout an art museum . Admire the architecture .

I have done numerous rock band photo shoot performing at Fed Sq. My greatest moment was the Painters & Dockers singing "The Boy Who Lost His Jocks On Flinders St Station" with the station in the back!

Visit the little funny shaped square building at the corner of Flinders & Swanston Streets, this is the Visitor Info Centre & say hi to the lovely staff there and perhaps book yourself on a day tour !

Grab yourself some takeaway food and sit here to soak up the Melbourne atmosphere. You'll start to appreciate this city by just watching.

All I read here is free Wifi , but take some time and look at the ground. The most wonderful stones I have ever seen in whole Australia! Everyone is unique and they come from WA.

Had so much fun at the Japanese summer festival and the moomba festival . Go down there if you are free and have a good time. Enjoy how Melbourne embrace all cultures :)

big open space , easy to get there, but all the cafes & restaurants are a bit overrated

Keep your eyes open in the Square - there's always some kind of amazing public art ! At the moment (August-September 2012), don't miss the iceberg stereograms scattered around the place.

There's free WiFi , though I don't use it. There's a massive screen that varies what's on it. There's also a few restaurants and very close to trams and other places.

See the 'Labyrinth' @Fed_Square. This below ground tour is only available via the ballot. So apply here now! http://ow.ly/mElab #LoveOHM

Great public space , visit the Victoria galleries for a taste of aboriginal and contemporary Australian art .

Love music frequently.. Great place to bring your lunch , or just grab a drink and sit and tap your toes.

Nice place to sit down chill with your friends!! Free wi-fi!! And many coffee shops and restaurants around!

Everyone meets at 'Fed Square'. Bars , restaurants , galleries , free WiFi and an event hub. See the action on the big screen or enjoy the people watching !

good place to start your journey in Melbourne, there is one big information center with lovely staff & a lot of info.

Walk up the magnificent St Kilda Road to Federation Square - a complex of galleries , museums , restaurants and shops constructed of glass, zinc and sandstone. Read more

The wifi is next to useless if you are inside anywhere! You have to stand in the middle of the square to get any signal! It is optu$, so par for the course!

Must come here if you visiting Melbourne

Frequently hold free art and music events here. Personal favourites include the beer and wine shows and ACMI for movies . The website has a detailed calendar for you to keep an eye on.

A very nice place to hang out with friends and people watch .

The visitor center was very helpful. There is also free wifi and plenty of seats if you need a rest.

This is the best place to spend an afternoon in Melbourne relaxing and soaking up the views .

Promenade, one of the best public space in Melbourne

Amazing place. During summer, take a deck-chair and chill with a beer .

Plays host to a number of Melbourne International Comedy Festival events each year including the Very Big Laugh Out

Nice view of Melbourne, good and free Wi-Fi but just a little crowded with kids running all over on day times!!!

Another obligatory stopover 4 tourists - visit the NGV nearby. ACMI is particularly good and educational

Big screen tvs , big open spaces . Lovely long evenings spent here

Go back of house on this tour below the ground. Learn about the famous architecture and the story about the build. Open House 10am to 4pm - Saturday 28 and Sunday 29 July 2012 #OHM2012

Fun to wander around lots going on, fun place on a sunny day

Going to the ACMI events is always a great choice on the weekends. Parking on the next building at flinders st is the cheapest one.

The cobblestones are particularly good for rocking a child in a pram to sleep while you enjoy the view ( and a glass of wine !)

Cute little place to chill with great wifi

watching sunset and people near Flinder Station.

Iconic landmark . They have free Tai Chi on Tuesday's 730a

Best meeting place! Meet your friends on the steps if meeting friends in the city . Easiest place to find.

A must visit when in Melbourne

Great public space . But a /really/ ugly building. I see what they were trying to do, but it really didn't work out

Good square to set or walk around, usually active.

Very ugly but a great place, always something going on there and free wifi !
