MAY – Brunch in the Dark
Willing on offering a new lunch experience, Dans le Noir ? organised the first edition of Brunch in the Dark at the occasion of Mothers’ Day in 2018. A sold-out event where mothers have been taken out of their comfort zone. A Mothers’ Day they will definitely remember for a very long time!
JUNE – NOVEMBER – Melbourne Awards 2018
