The unforgettable Australia Day Live from the Sydney Opera House forecourt is a fitting finale to our national day.
Produced by the NSW Government with music maestro and Creative Director John Foreman OAM, this two-hour spectacular event will feature musical performances by top Aussie talent choreographed to spectacular fireworks displays, a flotilla of yachts and jet-skis dazzling Sydney Harbour.
Some of Australia’s most loved and legendary singers and entertainers will be taking centre stage overlooking Sydney Harbour and paying tribute to Australia with a selection of smash hits.
Aussie music icons Delta Goodrem, Casey Donovan, Dami Im, Mitch Tambo, Todd McKenney, tenor Lorenzo Rositano, along with world-renowned didgeridoo player William Barton will entertain the nation with their epic performances. Plus, in a ground-breaking opening segment, Iva Davies will look at Circular Quay when it was known as Warrane.Â
Rounding out the talent is Indigenous vocal group KARI, the renowned Koomurri Aboriginal Dance Troupe, and VOX Sydney Philharmonia Choirs. Aussie Pops Orchestra will back up the artists, with Australia Day Creative Director and music maestro John Foreman as host alongside Jeremy Fernandez and Casey Donovan.
Since it began in 2016, Australia Day Live has become much more than an event or concert, it is a showcase of inspiring stories of new citizens, Aboriginal culture and history and a symbol of community and unity.
It is about a nation coming together to celebrate our Australian Spirit and our many great achievements.
