Bob Geldof will headline the Rock and Rebuild concert in Sydney on May 1 to raise money for communities affected by disasters in Australia, New Zealand and Japan.
“To see the extent to which people’s lives have been devastated is heart-wrenching,” said Sir Bob. “I have experienced the generosity and compassion of the people of Australia, New Zealand and Japan first hand, so it’s quite humbling to be invited to lead the Rock and Rebuild effort, and give some support to those nations.”
Jon Stevens (Noiseworks/INXS) and Danielle Spencer will also perform at the show in the Lyric Theatre at Star City.
“Long after the cameras shift their focus the people will still be rebuilding their lives. It’s important that we keep them in our minds an continue to lend a hand,” said Sir Bob.
100% of income from ticket sales will be donated to both the Queensland Premier’s Disaster Relief Fund and The Australian Red Cross to help support communities affected by disasters in Australia, New Zealand and Japan.
Tickets are $150, available from Ticketmaster.
