If too much grooving starts to make your tummy rumble, there will be food available to chow down on, while there’s also a licensed bar to quench any skating-induced thirsts.
The team at Collingwood Underground Roller Disco have also promised a games room on the day, adding another sweet addition to an already-stacked program. And if you’ve grown out of your old skates, don’t stress, as skate hire will be available at the event.
The venue for the roller disco is the underground carpark at the Collingwood commission housing in Harmsworth Street. Through the event, the Collingwood Underground Roller Disco team aim to break down social barriers and use the profits to invest back into the community on the estate. The event is fully accessible but if you have any access enquiries or requirements, contact the Roller Disco team on Facebook.
