Live Nation is bringing some of the biggest names in music to the Sydney Opera House Forecourt this year.
Announced earlier this week (October 2nd), Live Nation’s ‘On The Steps’ is a fortnight of curated outdoor concerts taking place on the city’s most spectacular outdoor stage, the Sydney Opera House Forecourt.
Running from November 26th-December 10th, the series will host nine evenings of world-class live music set against one of the most stunning backdrops in the world.
Glass Animals will open ‘On The Steps’ on November 26th and 27th, looking to refresh their strong connection with Aussie audiences.
Global pop sensation Troye Sivan will follow them on November 28th and 29th, but both shows are already sold out. Tones and I, Missy Higgins, and Tina Arena and Richard Marx are also part of ‘On the Steps’.
English indie-pop star Declan McKenna will play alongside Irish band Two Door Cinema Club on December 6th, with New Zealand singer-songwriter Brooke Fraser joining the Sydney Symphony Orchestra for a spectacular show on December 10th to finish the series.
‘On The Steps’ is partnering with music industry charity Support Act, with all donations made through the series’ golden ticket promotion being matched by Live Nation. (Live Nation to match the total amount of donations received, up to a maximum aggregate amount of $10,000.)
