A.G. Coombs provides building services maintenance to Vision Australia in Victoria.

Each Christmas Eve, A.G. Coombs technicians provide on-hand technical services, including general and safety lighting services, at Vision Australia’s Carols by Candlelight® event, held at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl in Melbourne. The Bowl is also a part of A.G. Coombs Vic Arts Centre maintenance contract, where we have been providing services for over 18 years.

The annual Carols by Candlelight® event attracts a crowd in excess of 10,000 people and well over 2 million TV viewers. All proceeds raised are used to support children who are blind or have low vision to help them achieve the possibilities they choose in life.

By lighting a virtual candle on the website, you can donate to this great cause. Visit Vision Australia’s Light a Candle website page for further information. And for those in Melbourne, tune into Channel 9 on Christmas Eve for the live telecast of the Carols by Candlelight® event.
