Expect a wonderful evening of music, dancing, and community spirit, all while helping support a great cause.

Saturday night brings the energy of rock and roll with the amazing Darren J. Ray, a seasoned South Queensland performer known for his lively solo shows featuring ’50s and ’60s pop’n’roll favourites along with classic hits from the ’70s. It promises to be another fantastic night of live entertainment, dancing, and community fun.
