Blink

Overview

Home to Werribee Mansion, the Victoria State Rose Garden and the Werribee Open Range Zoo, Werribee Park is already a pretty stunning patch of Melbourne. For 11 nights in December, however, it's playing host to an impressive light projection show — so you'll have a luminous new reason to head by.

Called Blink, the event will focus in the work of local photographer David Mullins, which'll be used in quite the unique way. His portraits will be beamed onto the park's trees, using images of real-life folks from his Faces of Wyndham project.

You'll be able to see them from 9pm–12am each evening from Thursday, December 10–Sunday, November 20, all for free.

Bookings are required though — and if you'd like to arrange a picnic hamper to eat your way through while you're there, you can do that too. The Refectory Parlour's garden bar will also be open, and the zoo is doing evening sessions from 4–8pm on Fridays–Sundays.
