Australian Heritage Festival Unlock the Change at Jacks Magazine Open Day by Social Walks Melbourne

The Australian Heritage Festival 2026 features Unlock the Change at Jack’s Magazine Open Day, a single-day event on May 2, 2026, from 11:00 to 15:00 at Jack’s Magazine in Maribyrnong, Victoria. Visitors explore the site's history as an 1870s ammunition storage transformed into a heritage-listed cultural space through guided tours and a children-led QR discovery trail. The day includes heritage vehicle displays, wildlife and puppet shows, pony rides, live music, food stalls, and face painting for family entertainment. Normally closed to the public, this open day celebrates the past, present, and future of the site with activities suitable for all ages, especially children aged 5-11.
