Why this guide exists
The Maribyrnong Guide is an independent local publication for residents, visitors and anyone curious about Melbourne’s inner west. It brings local places and practical information together in a clear, readable format.
Our patch
Our starting point is Maribyrnong: the suburb, its river setting and the neighbourhoods around it. The wider City of Maribyrnong includes Footscray, Yarraville, Seddon, Maidstone and other nearby suburbs. We distinguish the suburb from the municipality when a guide covers a specific place.
What you’ll find here
The journal will cover open space, neighbourhood life, food, culture and things to do. Each guide should help you understand a place and decide what to explore next.
How we approach our guides
We favour clear descriptions and sourceable information. Hours, access arrangements and services can change, so confirm time-sensitive details with the venue or responsible organisation before visiting. We do not present this publication as a council service or an official tourism authority.
