See some of the fun we had celebrating Melbourne Day in past years
See the fun we have when not in lockdown

Join the biggest couch party in marvellous Melbourne's history on Sunday, 30 August – to celebrate our city's 185th birthday.

And share your iso party selfies on social media using #MelbourneDay.

Use these free selfie posters and snap your party – on the couch, under the doona, in your jammies and trackies, baking cupcakes or crying that our footy Grand Final won't be at the 'G.

This year, we can't hold the traditional flag-raising at Enterprize Park but hoist your own – get your flag poster and share pics of your home ceremony.

Party on the sofa – from Wantirna and Watsonia to Altona, Balaclava and Dromana.

Celebrate what's great …and Melbourne's indigenous culture and heritage.

When the 'rona is over, Victoria will be more marvellous than ever.

We're 185: be proud and celebrate – at home!

Congratulations to Alicia Gec, 12, for winning our Melbourne Day competition.

The Penleigh Essendon Grammar student edged out four other finalists, chosen from a record number of entries.

"I'm so excited to help Melbourne to be the best we can," she said.

Her big-ticket policy is helping Melburnians cope with mental health while in iso.

'I love our diverse community that makes Melbourne one of the most liveable cities'

"We need to create alternative, creative fun ways to reconnect while we're socially distancing."

Her top tips to cope with lockdown?

  • Stay active, exercise — don't ignore your physical health
  • Stay connected, reach out — you're not alone
  • Stay positive — you've got this.
