Flinders Street Amphitheatre is a stepped, open-air performance location at Fed Square, facing Flinders Street in central Melbourne. Fed Square identifies it as one of its approved busking locations and describes seating on the steps and some shelter from wind between adjacent buildings. Performers require an appropriate City of Melbourne busking permit and a separate Fed Square application; approvals are subject to site operations, event schedules and safety needs. Larger branded activations or exclusive events require separate discussion with Fed Square and should not be treated as ordinary busking permits.
