Melbourne Weekender is a travel and lifestyle show hosted by Cameron Ling.[1] The weekly, half-hour program was produced by Seven Productions and visited various locations in Melbourne and Victoria, showing destinations and experiences which can be enjoyed on a weekend.

The show was first screened in 2005 on Saturdays at 5.30pm. It was originally hosted by Peter Mitchell and then Jo Silvagni. The show was produced by Dreampool Productions with a range of presenters who feature stories on gardening, pets, renovating, fishing, boating, dining, entertainment and where to take the family around Melbourne.

In June 2015, the show returned to air with host Cameron Ling and a team of reporters. A revival in 2019 was titled "The Great Weekend" and was presented by Jane Bunn, Brian Taylor, Jack Riewoldt, Brooke Hogan and Pete Lazer.[2] In November 2019, the Seven Network announced the show had been axed with final episodes screening in early 2020.[3]
