Take a 1.5 hour tour around Frankston's city centre and experience some of Melbourne's freshest street art.

With your hot drink in hand, visit more than 90 mammoth murals around the city centre. With pieces from renowned street art artists such as Smug, PichiAvo, DVATE, Vesod, PEETA EAD, Phat1 and Lady Diva, you will be absolutely fascinated by the stories and inspiration that are now part of Frankston's inner core.

The city centre's urban landscape began to transform back in 2018, as the City's annual street art festival brought some of the world's best street artists to Frankston. Painting over the course of a week, they brought a huge jolt of colour to the central core. Annually, the festival has brought more and more international, national and local artists to Frankston, creating an outdoor gallery of murals for everyone to enjoy.

Tours cost only $15 per person, which includes coffee, tea or hot chocolate on the Saturday and Sunday tours. During the Friday twilight tours, soft drink or water is included in the ticket price. Street Art Tours will be limited to small groups up to 15 people.

Trip Advisor 5* Reviews:

Russell I: Eyes Wide Open - What a Sight - There are some very talented street artists works to be viewed on this terrific walking tour through the laneways and streets of Frankston. All within a comfortable distance starting from the Frankston Library. Be guided by very knowledgeable tour guides who explain information on each art work and the artists. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the street art scene.

Michelle B: Today I went on the Street Art Walking Tour in Frankston, absolutely blown away at the quality and quantity of art in the back lanes and alleys of Frankston. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and explained the varying artists and artwork so we could get the full appreciation of what we were looking at, would highly recommend this tour 1 1/2 hours plus right near the beach and wonderful places to eat & drink at the end of the tour, do yourself a favour and book a tour today.

Judith M: "Our guide Sue from the Centre clearly loves showing off these secrets which are created by local and international artists and pop up in the most unexpected places- many with a socially sensitive message - others with just a burst of colourful intensity."

Michaela C: "This tour gives a whole different perspective on Frankston. An hour and half walk. The art is amazing and coffee included too. Great way to see Frankston."

Tishounette: "My kids took me on this tour for Mother's Day and we all enjoyed it immensely. The artwork is spectacular and the tour guides very knowledgeable and friendly."
