During autumn, you'll experience comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 12°C to 20°C, making it ideal for walking around and exploring the city's parks and gardens. The leaves on the trees in Fitzroy Gardens and Treasury Gardens turn beautiful colours, providing a picturesque backdrop for your visit. There are also fewer crowds compared to the peak summer season.

Spring offers similar agreeable weather, with temperatures usually between 10°C and 20°C. The city's gardens are in full bloom, which is particularly lovely for those who enjoy spending time outdoors. This period also often sees fewer major events, meaning that accommodation can sometimes be more readily available and at better value than during the busy summer or winter festival seasons.

While summer (December to February) can be hot, with temperatures often exceeding 25°C, it's a popular time for beach trips and outdoor events, though East Melbourne itself might feel quite warm for extensive walking.
