Summer Season 2023!

January 14, 2023

Welcome to 2023! It’s officially our favourite time of year…Midsumma!!

As always, its a busy two months – here’s what we have planned:

22 January – Midsumma Carnival: See us on the main stage between 1:30pm and 2:00pm, and then listen out for us as we roam the grounds playing more music!

2 February – MRB at the Pride Centre: Performing for the first time in the Pride Centre Theatrette, this will be an intimate one hour show featuring a mix of the popular as well as some classics. We guarantee to get your toes tapping. This is your chance to hear the Melbourne Rainbow Band perform an hour of our favourite music in the incredible Victorian Pride Centre as part of Midsumma Festival!

5 February – Pride March!

We can’t wait to be performing out in the sun again, always such an amazing vibe!

Unfortunately, we will not be holding our usual Picnic at Forest Glade this year.

As many of our followers would already be aware, 2022 sadly saw the passing of the Late Cyril Stokes.

As a result, MRB will be taking a break from our much loved Picnic at Forest Glade in 2023 to allow the Stokes Collection to reconvene and plan for the future.

Thank you all for your understanding!
