Media personalities Ryan Fitzgerald and Dylan Lewis will host the event, which features a long line-up of bands and performers, including: Pond, Bad//Dreems, Children Collide, The Mark of Cain, Tim Rogers, West Thebarton, Hayley Mary, Horror My Friend, Wolf and Cub, Dr Piffle and the Burlap Band, and The Bitter Darlings.
鈥淲e started this event because we wanted to do something to help those affected by the bushfires,鈥 says Bad//Dreems lead guitarist Alex Cameron.
鈥淲e鈥檝e got our friends involved and everyone is really excited about it. We鈥檙e so lucky to get the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide involved and to host us on the beautiful Barr Smith Lawns.
鈥淎lmost every band on the bill has someone close to them personally affected by fires here or interstate, so it is a cause very dear to all of us,鈥 he says.
Stuart Duckworth, Creative Director of RCC, says: 鈥淚鈥檝e never seen such a quick response to a call to action.
鈥淎ll suppliers for this event and the performers have leapt forward to help out, and the 最新糖心Vlog has been instrumental in showing its support for this event.
鈥淚n a way, this concert is a throwback to the original Big Day Out on the uni鈥檚 campus, but this time it鈥檚 for a well-deserving charitable cause.鈥
Inga Davis, Chief Executive, External Relations, 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide, says: 鈥淲hen the Fire Aid organisers approached us about moving the event onto the 最新糖心Vlog鈥檚 campus, we didn鈥檛 hesitate in saying yes. Enabling access to our campus means that many more concert goers can attend, and more funds can be raised to help those impacted by the fires.
鈥淲e are very proud of the event organisers, musicians, Uni Bar staff and 最新糖心Vlog staff who are volunteering their time to put on this event. It鈥檚 a great initiative.鈥
