The Antipodes Festival returned to Melbourne’s iconic Lonsdale Street on Saturday with a bang. The festival is organised by the Greek Community of Melbourne (GCM) and saw thousands visit to enjoy the Hellenic culture, music and dancing.

The event doesn’t end on Saturday though, with more dancing performances and live music until 10pm today. Full program of activities can be found here.

Stay tuned for our full report of the festival tomorrow online and in Wednesday’s print paper in Greek!
