Where?House Melbourne Music Week site revealed

The Argus building in Melbourne’s CBD has been announced as the location for this year’s Where?House at Melbourne Music Week.

The 86-year-old building, located on the corner of Lonsdale and Elizabeth streets (near Melbourne Central), will host a variety of events including bands, DJs, sound artists, film screenings, artist conversations, food and vintage clothing stalls from November 16 to 25.

Described as a “bomb site” by lord mayor Robert Doyle in July, the building is in such disrepair that only the bottom two floors will be used during Melbourne Music Week ( with a capacity of 400 people upstairs and 800 downstairs). The Age also reports that asbestos has been removed from the building.

Melbourne Music Week will feature performances by local and international artists including Beaches, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, Naysayer & Gilsun, Teengirl Fantasy (USA), Tim Sweeney (USA) and No Zu.
