What to Expect

 

🍽️ Dinner at Grossi Florentino

We’ll meet at 5.00pm at Grossi Florentino for a two-course dinner and time to relax and connect with other carers before the performance.

🩰 Dracula – Ballet at its Darkest

At approximately 6.30pm, the group will make its way on foot to nearby Her Majesty’s Theatre for the 7.00pm performance of Dracula – Ballet at its Darkest.  

Whether you regularly attend the theatre or this is something completely new, no knowledge of ballet is needed — simply come along and enjoy the experience.

💚 An Evening for You

Caring for someone can leave little time to do something simply for yourself.  Our carer events provide opportunities to step away from everyday responsibilities, meet other carers and enjoy experiences together in a welcoming environment.

 

Who Can Attend?

This event is for eligible carers who provide unpaid care or support to a family member, friend, loved one or someone in their community.

You don’t necessarily need to think of yourself as a “carer”. If you regularly support someone in your life, we encourage you to express your interest and our Care Manager can discuss eligibility with you.

 

Getting There

Guests will need to make their own way to Grossi Florentino in Melbourne CBD and meet the group at the restaurant by 5.00pm.

Following dinner, the group will walk from Grossi Florentino to Her Majesty’s Theatre.

If you have accessibility or mobility requirements that may affect your participation, please let our team know when we contact you so we can discuss the event arrangements with you.
