Discover Spring in Melbourne's Inner North

There’s something special about spring in Melbourne’s inner north. As the days grow longer and warmer, the neighbourhoods of Brunswick, Parkville, and Carlton come alive with colour, activity, and community spirit. For residents of Prince & Parade, it’s a season that highlights the very best of life connected to Princes Park.
Life by the Park
Living moments from Princes Park means spring is always just a step outside your door. Whether it’s a morning walk under blossoming trees, a jog along leafy trails, or a lazy afternoon picnic on the grass, the park offers a daily retreat into nature. It’s also a vibrant community hub, where locals gather to enjoy fresh air, sport, and conversation.
A Neighbourhood in Bloom
Beyond the park, the surrounding suburbs of Brunswick, Parkville, and Carlton transform in spring. Tree-lined streets burst with flowers, bustling café terraces spill onto footpaths, and weekend markets brim with seasonal produce. From brunch spots along Lygon Street to local galleries and cultural festivals, the area is full of opportunities to savour the season.
Community Spirit: St Margaret Mary’s School Fête
This spring, the sense of community is especially strong with the much-loved St Margaret Mary’s School Fête, held on Saturday, 26 October from 10am – 4pm at 47–49 Mitchell Street, Brunswick North. A local favourite, the fête brings together families, friends, and neighbours for a day of fun, food, and festivities.
Prince & Parade will be part of the celebrations with a dedicated stall, giving us the chance to meet locals and share more about life at this landmark address.
A Place That Connects It All
Prince & Parade is more than a collection of residences – it’s a place that connects you to nature, culture, and community. With Princes Park on your doorstep and Brunswick, Parkville, and Carlton just moments away, spring here is not just a season, but a lifestyle.
