Melbourne Central’s iconic glass cone will blossom into a lush urban glasshouse, wrapping the historic Shot Tower in vibrant greenery and garden characters.
Step inside a flourishing world of creativity and colour at Bloom, a larger-than-life inflatable art display under the Melbourne Central Cone from 20 December.
Check out the mesmerising on the ground installation on Level 1 opposite Sephora, where you can score your free Bloom merch when you shop at MC.
International 3D artist Melissa Mathieson, aka Melissa Likes Sushi, is crafting a lush urban glasshouse, making Melbourne Central a must-visit destination this summer.
As one of Melbourne’s most photographed landmarks, the Shot Tower becomes a playground of discovery – where visitors of all ages can explore, interact and discover something new at every turn.
