Melbourne Conversations

The City of Melbourne’s free talks series (re)connects Melburnians to their community through discussion, commentary and participation on vital issues and ideas. We seek to engage with challenging ideas and influence Melbourne’s intellectual culture, creativity, liveability, and sustainability.

Each year Melbourne Conversations presents at city venues, including Deakin Edge at Federation Square and Melbourne Town Hall. The event format varies from a forum of experts and audience questions and answers, to more informal conversations through lectures and more intimate conversations presented at smaller venues.
