Melbourne’s west is the place to be this April, with endless exciting events on the calendar for locals.
From live music, comedy shows, festivals, to multicultural events, and Easter family fun — the westside is teeming with extraordinary events this month.
Kick things off by visiting the Werribee Open Range Zoo’s recently launched Elephant Trail, which offers visitors an immersive, up-close experience with the majestic creatures.
Take a walk through expansive habitats and learn about conservation efforts while seeing the elephants roam freely.
If you’re looking for a heavy dose of laughter, The Wacky Wizard of the West (Lisa Gatenby) is presenting “Winni Wizard Chronicles: Ditzy’s Discovery!” as part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival until April 17.
There’s also something on offer for all history buffs out there as Hobsons Bay’s “Unearthed” history program comes to town on April 21 for two weeks. Visitors will be able to explore diverse local stories with walks, talks, and workshops.
For families hoping for some captivating school-holiday fun, the Scienceworks school holiday program includes creative engineering with Tinkertown, STEM workshops, Melbourne Planetarium shows, the stunning “Museum of the Moon” and much more.
Those more musically inclined can also enjoy an afternoon of music magic at the Williamstown Town Hall on April 27. The Inner West Symphony Orchestra kicks off the season with Peter & the Wolf, the Super Mario Galaxy Suite, along with Dukas and Brahms.
