Occasions in Melbourne
Racing carnival and events
The spring calendar brings a concentrated season of events work, often with early starts and multiple clients in one morning.
Weddings across Victoria
City weddings, winery celebrations and regional venues make up a large part of the wedding work available.
Editorial, television and commercial
Melbourne supports commercial production, television and editorial work across the inner suburbs.
Hotel and on location appointments
Some artists travel to hotels, apartments and venues across Melbourne. Location and travel terms are agreed with the artist.
Planning ahead in peak season
Melbourne's event season concentrates demand into short periods. Contacting artists early gives you a better chance of finding the right professional for your date.
Availability, travel fees, service locations and booking terms are set by each individual artist. Not every artist offers mobile or hotel appointments, so confirm the details directly before you commit to a date. More guidance is in our guide to finding a makeup artist while travelling.
