Federation Bells — Attraction in Melbourne

The music being broadcasted was very soothing and charming. We visited on an evening on a weekend and hence had more space to enjoy the music in a peaceful manner. Further, we enjoyed the shadows of the bells along with our shadows merging with them!

However, I suggest better marketing could have been given through steps such as having some sign boards at the tram stations or railway stations indicating the way to the location. This was mainly because, we were visiting some other place and was only when passing, hearing the sounds we searched what was there. So more indicative boards will have been better especially...

Have been multiple times with the kids for the 12:30 music show but each time the bells fail to play anything.

It’s not like we’re the only ones waiting to hear the performance as others have been there each time and then have left after traveling there and waiting for nothing.

I’m sure it’s lovely when it works but it’s been disappointing each time this has happened.

Maybe we’ll get to hear it one day but for now, someone at the city should really make sure...

It's a cool idea. They play three times a day so make sure you check before you arrive if you want to hear them. I think they look best at night with the lights. The sound isn't always the nicest but it's a great idea. There are so many things to see and do around here that it's worth going to, just to hear one piece of music. 15 minutes is probably enough. You don't need to be close to them, you can hear them from the other side...
