St Kilda
St Kilda is defined by two distinct retail strips, Fitzroy Street and Acland Street Village. The Esplanade and St Kilda Beach provide a natural link between the two precincts.
Renowned for live music, arts and culture and outdoor activities, plus home to many annual festivals, including St Kilda Festival, St Kilda Film Festival and the Pride March, St Kilda provides the perfect urban playground.
