Melbourne may be one of the most expensive cities in the world, but that doesn't mean folks don't put things on for free. Especially in summer, when the nights are long and balmy and ideal for after-work activities. If you know where to looks, you can find free gigs, free art, free yoga classes and more happening around the city. So swallow your disdain for crowds and curb your complaints about people who only go to exhibition openings for the complimentary drinks and get amongst these summer events, which you can attend gloriously cash-free.
