The Venue Menu Promo

There is no doubt that Melbourne is one of the greatest cities in the world to experience live music. What we set out to discover through this podcast, is how our live music scene works as well as it does. 

To do this, we spoke to an array of people working behind the scenes of music in Melbourne. From venue owners to managers, band bookers to musicians, as well as representatives from Music Victoria and the Melbourne City Council.

It was in the culmination of these perspectives that the reason for Melbourne’s success became clear, and a holistic answer surfaced.
