Did a search and didn't find anything on this.
I just heard about this thing going on this weekend where about 100 buildings in Melbourne's city that are usually closed to the public are being open for tours.
It's sunday afternoon and i'm stuck at work so i figure i've missed out.
Does anyone know anything about this/gone to anything?
Super curious about this...

This is on again this weekend. Should finally be going to it this year.
picked up my program the other day, and got into 3 of the invite only tours.
woo.
I'm overwhelmed by how many options there are. So far the only ones I know I wanna go to are the substations and Origin's rooftop garden.
one day down, one day to go, if my legs can carry on.
Origin's rooftop garden isn't amazing. I preferred the rooftop garden at 131 Queen St
Buildings announced for 2012, 100 on the list.
My programme arrived today.
Ooh I want in

Pretty sure i signed up as a volunteer, but haven't heard anything.
They've been pleading for office volunteers the last few weeks.
luckily i'm not social media savvy enough to see that (or help)
I could run a fucking amazing tour of the pathology museum. Who wants to talk gangrene?!
Ballot is open for the super popular tours.
I'm thinking of entering the ballot for the behind the scenes Fed Square tour. Anyone done it before? Worth it?
yeah, i have, its pretty nifty, mazes of tunnels.
Did my volunteer induction thingo last night, gonna be fun.
I think the 3 surprise buildings get announced soon.
I entered the ballot for Manchester Unity building (pretty pics).
Interesting story how the guy who runs the dentistry in the building took it upon himself to get all the spaces up to their original splendour. Last year he conducted all the tours himself.
lots more information on that one here: http://www.manchesterunitybuilding.com.au/
I've tried a couple of times with no luck, but you've only got about a 8% chance of making any of the booked tours.
this weekend, yup yup.
3 surprise buildings are so so.
Does anyone get to visit Manchester Unity? I entered the ballot but didn't get a ticket
nup, got into one of the other tours though
tomorrow (and sunday)
may see some of youse around, i'm volunteering sunday arvo.
