Into Darkness

September 18, 2025


Presented by the Melbourne Rainbow Bandย ๐ŸŽถ๐ŸŒˆ

Melbourne Rainbow Band presents: Into Darkness Tickets, Collingwood Town Hall, Abbotsford | TryBooking Australia

Join us on Saturday 4 October at 7:00pm at Collingwood Town Centre for the second part of our two-part musical journey.

Following our earlier concert Into the Light, which explored the brilliance, energy, and radiance of light, we now turn our focus to its counterpart: darkness.

๐ŸŒ‘ What does darkness mean to us? Is it something to fear, a space of mystery, the unknown, and unease? Or can it also be a place of rest, calm, and peace? Through powerful and evocative music, the Melbourne Rainbow Band will explore the many faces of darkness: its terror, its comfort, and its quiet beauty.

๐Ÿ“ Venue: Collingwood Town Centre, 140 Hoddle St, Abbotsford VIC 3067
๐Ÿ•– Time: Saturday 4 October, 7:00pm
๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ Tickets: $30 ($24 concession). Scan the QR code on the poster, or visit the ticket link to book.

Join us as we step Into Darkness and discover what truly lies within.
