From immersive art exhibitions to a vegan haven and bottomless footy games, we bring you 7 entertaining things to do this weekend in Melbourne.
Taking you on an immersive voyage from one continent to another, Sir David Attenborough narrates the BBC Earth Experience currently showing at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre. With his hypnotic voice, the celebrated biologist guides you through the elements, the different terrains and unique animals of every continent, submerging you in glorious imagery with light and sound transporting you to Africa, Antarctica and Asia before bringing you to Australia, North America, South America and Europe.

The BBC Earth Experience, which closes this Sunday, is perfect for young and old and definitely a unique exhibition not to be missed.
