  • Stuart Ayres MEDIA RELEASE
    Stuart Ayres Minister for Jobs, Investment, Tourism and Western Sydney MEDIA RELEASE Saturday, 13 June 2020 NEW MUSIC EVENT BRINGS 1,000 GIGS TO SYDNEY AND NSW — HUGE BOOST FOR TOURISM AND ARTISTS A new music event will bring 1,000 COVID-safe gigs to Sydney and regional NSW in November, giving Australian artists a welcome boost and turbocharging live music venues across the state. Great Southern Nights is a NSW Government initiative delivered by its tourism and major events agency Destination NSW in partnership with the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) to support the recovery of the live music, entertainment and hospitality industries. Minister for Jobs, Investment, Tourism and Western Sydney Stuart Ayres said the gigs would be a welcome antidote to the challenges presented by COVID-19, bushfires and the prolonged drought. “This celebration of outstanding Australian artists and incredible live music venues across NSW gives us all something to look forward to, from event-goers to industry,” Minister Ayres said. “We’ll be able to get out and see Sydney and regional NSW come to life with some of Australia’s top acts including Jimmy Barnes, Paul Kelly, Missy Higgins and Tones and I alongside emerging artists in unexpected places. “We’re inviting venues across NSW, from the bush to the city, to nominate to be involved in this exciting new event. “With the NSW Government’s 24-hour economy strategy set to reinvigorate Sydney’s nightlife, Great Southern Nights will be a big step forward for our state’s live music and hospitality community that has been hit hard in recent times.” Among the 20 headline acts to play across the music event are (in alphabetical order): • Jimmy Barnes • Birds of Tokyo • Missy Higgins • The Jungle Giants • Paul Kelly • Thelma Plum • The Presets • Amy Shark • Tash Sultana • The Teskey Brothers • Tones and I • The Veronicas Established and emerging local Australian artists will present 1,000 gigs, curated by ARIA and an industry advisory committee across a multitude of venues around NSW.
