LOCATION
The Alphington Wetlands is located on the flood
plain of the Yarra River at the southern end of
Alphington Park and on the adjacent privately owned
land at 1 View Street (Melways Ref 45 C1).
The festival is best accessed via View St. View
St will be closed to car traffic at the corner of
View St and Lucerne Cres. From that corner, you
can find the festival ground by continuing on foot
down View St to the river flat and turn right through
the gate on the river flats after passing
the tennis courts (which will be on your right).
The Alphington Wetlands is a collaborative project
involving the South Alphington and Fairfield Civic
Association (SAFCA) Inc, City of Yarra, Kate Herd
of 1 View Street, and local residents.
