White Night 2014
In light of NSW's recent legislation regarding liquor licensing and opening hours, events like these are a happy reminder of how good us Victorians have it. Look after yourselves and enjoy the madness. Twelve hours is a marathon, not a sprint.
Overview
Last year, Melbourne’s first White Night was almost a victim of its own success. The CBD was stretched to capacity, swamped by unexpected crowds, and even if you had no interest in seeing The Cat Empire you were somehow forced to sardine yourself on Flinders Street regardless. This year, organisers have put a fix to many of these teething problems.
Now, events are spread across the CBD (but never more than a brisk walk away) and most performances will be running repeatedly throughout the night. While it’s worth taking the time to browse the festival’s online program, we've plotted out one course of action for you. From 7pm till 7am — check out our guide to Melbourne's classiest all-nighter here.
