We have your fix for all things Revolver through the spooky season.
It’s already October. We could bore you with some cliché asking “Where did the time go?”, but we’d rather present the absolute soul shufflers Revolver is throwing down through the coming weeks.
As always, Revs will have your nights out sorted, providing much of the spark and character of Melbourne’s south-east. It’d be a hard task to think of many Melbourne music connoisseurs who haven’t frequented the club (which also has one of the cooler bandrooms in the city).
Keep up with the latest music news, features, festivals, interviews and reviews here.
It’s a beautiful testament to the ability live music possesses in bringing together folks from all walks, so do take care of yourselves and your fellow gig fiends. Our music scene is a phenomenal place when done right.
So without further ado, we bestow upon you our beloved Revs in October.

Winter Series close out
- Sunday, October 13
- Featuring Adam Ten
All the best winter series’ tackle a bit of spring too – at least that’s how Revolver sees it. Finally bidding adieu to a long and dark winter means also saying goodbye to the Sunday specials that pulled us through it.
Adam Ten will be tasked with seeing off Revolver’s 2024 Winter Series, and he’ll be joined by the usual auditory feast that is the support crew. Ten provides a uniquely fresh genre of house, one which employs elements of tribe and indie beats to present the perfect farewell to a genuinely great series of events. As always, you’ll need your tickets.
