As the sun sets on our national day, Australia Day Live from the Sydney Opera House forecourt and spanning Circular Quay is just getting started with an inspiring and uplifting finale to the day featuring powerful storytelling, moving tributes and sensational entertainment on both land and water.
Australia Day Live will be hosted by John Foreman, Casey Donovan and Jeremy Fernandez and is set to showcase musical performances from our nation’s best talent including William Barton, Dami Im, Christine Anu and Isaiah Firebrace.
All this along with Sydney’s iconic landmarks and harbour create an incredible backdrop for a brilliant fireworks and light show complemented by a dazzling watercraft extravaganza of yachts, jet skis, fly boarders, and parachutists dropping in to join the fun.
The two-hour spectacular is produced by the NSW Government and Australia Day Council of NSW with creative direction led by music maestro and Creative Director John Foreman OAM together with Creative Consultant, the multi-instrumentalist, composer and vocalist William Barton.
Since it began in 2016, Australia Day Live at Sydney Opera House has proven much more than a concert; it reflects a nation coming together to reflect, respect and celebrate the Australian spirit and the best of this vast nation; our mateship, our sense of community, and our resilience.
Not if Casey Donovan is appearing I won’t be
Mate she was great
What a great concert and well done to Casey Donovan and the crew.
