The Public Sector Audit Forum is being held in Melbourne, one of Australia’s most interesting, beautiful and historic cities.

Well known for its food, wine, theatre, arts, design, architecture, sport and museums, Melbourne is widely regarded as a major Australian cultural tourism destination. Its gracious urban design and excellent public transport system makes exploring the city a pleasure for many visitors.

Melbourne is set on the shores of Port Phillip Bay, and can also offer some beautiful natural destinations and rural attractions within a short distance from the city.

Whilst in Melbourne, we encourage you and your colleagues or partners to take advantage of any free time to explore the city and its surrounds.
