Stars Unite for a Free Celebration Concert marking International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD).
In the lead-up to IDPwD, top Australian artists, with and without disability, will share the stage in a unique Free concert event.
Hot on the heels of the spectacular Paralympic Games, Elevate the Stage is a celebration of unity, acceptance and diversity, and an uplifting showcase of talent on the Sunday before this year’s IDPwD.
Paralympic wheelchair rugby great, Ryley Batt will join journalist Nas Campanella as hosts of the second-annual Elevate the Stage concert spectacular.
This year’s performers include (but are not limited to): Opera Australia’s First Nations soprano Nina Korbe performing with opera sensation Tim McCallum, Lucy Durack star of Wicked, visually impaired instrumentalists and singers Lara Nakhle and Connor Wink, comedians Peter Berner and Madeleine Stewart, Iva Davies performing with Icehouse guitarist Paul Gildea and the Combined Schools Signing Choir, Rob Mills performing with the NOVAbility Dancers, Mick on Wheels with autistic electric guitarist Jaybird Byrne and many more.
Largely organised by a dedicated group of volunteers, Elevate the Stage is the pinnacle event of Australia’s annual IDPwD festivities.
Elevate the Stage is generously backed by Presenting Sponsor, Nova Employment and 1000 Free tickets are now available to the first who register to attend the concert at ICC Sydney’s Grand Ballroom via the website.
