=Melbourne's Formal After Party Culture===
Since about 2002, a growing after party culture has been present in Melbourne like no where else in the world.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://moonee-valley-leader.whereilive.com.au/news/story/after-party-fears/|title=School formal after-party fears|first=Anna|last=Prytz|date=2009-05-05|publisher=2011-04-15|publisher=[[Moonee Valley Leader]]|location=[[Melbourne, Australia]]}}</ref> The parties are often illegal as they are done in venues that do not hold the proper government permits to have events, sell liquor without a licence and do not enforce liquor licencing laws.
